I think that is worth asking Mark Nottingham about adding that
functionality.

No, that is rather dangerous. The CVE-2009-0801 and related nest of
vulnerabilities are opened up if Host header is trusted by a proxy.

That is the CVE-2009-0801 protections doing their thing for intercept'ed
traffic (second log line). The 10.8.0.33 IP is where the client was
apparently going before MITM'd into the proxy, so the server there MUST
be able to handle whatever the client is expecting back regardless of
whether the proxy trusts it for caching purposes.

But 10.8.0.33 is your Squid, so the traffic loops (first log line).
Squid detects the loop and rejects it to prevent infinite memory and TCP
port numbers being consumed.
