This is correct HTTP behaviour as far as the details you have provided show.

That is broken. It should be expecting a response in HTTP/1.*


The client is telling Squid that it can only support feature level 0. So
responses from Squid can only use *features* compatible with level-0.

Squid is telling the client it supports feature level 1. So the client
can actually *use* features from 1.1 (if it wants/needs to) in its
messages labeled "HTTP/1.0".


<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-2.6>
"
   When an HTTP/1.1 message is sent to an HTTP/1.0 recipient [RFC1945]
   or a recipient whose version is unknown, the HTTP/1.1 message is
   constructed such that it can be interpreted as a valid HTTP/1.0
   message if all of the newer features are ignored.

...
   Intermediaries that process HTTP messages (i.e., all intermediaries
   other than those acting as tunnels) MUST send their own HTTP-version
   in forwarded messages.
