The biggest change is that bundled Kerberos auth helpers are now using
the newer v3.4+ helper protocol. That prevents some malformations of
Unicode and whitespace characters in the username or password which
Squid-3 might have been ignoring when it should have rejected.

You may need to check both what you have on record in your AD/LDAP and
what the affected user thinks they need to enter.

There is also the less likely possibility that other non-auth ACLs are
rejecting the request for completely unrelated reasons.


For completeness; there are some other changes, but those seem
irrelevant to your case.
