FTR: This part seems to be about an ICAP RESPMOD service generating a
307 redirect (AFAICT).

Did curl receive the last-chunk from Squid? If not, did Squid received
the last-chunk from the ICAP service? See below for more details.

Squid ignores Accept-Encoding so the --compressed switch is not relevant
to Squid. Perhaps the ICAP service or the origin server react to it, but
the headers you have provided do not show any important differences:

... but REQMOD does not redirect when you do _not_ skip it, right? That
is, it is RESPMOD that always redirects (until a separate test below)?
If that is what happens, then it is possible that something goes wrong
inside the ICAP service, and turning off REQMOD that does not redirect
fixes the redirect in RESPMOD. However, it is a bit difficult for me to
follow the REQMOD/RESPMOD roles in your email so I may be
misunderstanding something.

OK. Redirection in REQMOD is quite a different beast -- a lot of things
change, on both Squid and ICAP sides.

The actual question here is not about the connections but about the
messages inside those connections. It sounds like Squid does not send
the entire redirect response body to curl in some cases. _That_ could be
caused by the ICAP service not sending the entire redirect response body
to Squid.

You can probably confirm or deny the last bit by looking at ICAP traffic
in wireshark. Does the ICAP response contain the last-chunk (which is
usually the "0 CR LF CR LF" sequence in the chunked-encoded message body)?

* If the last-chunk is missing, then Squid is waiting for the ICAP
service. I do not know what the ICAP RESPMOD service is waiting for, but
it could be the last-chunk of the virgin HTTP response that Squid is
supposed to send to the RESPMOD service. Wireshark should show that
exchange as well.

* Otherwise, it could be a Squid bug -- post a link to a compressed
ALL,9 cache.log of the problematic transaction as discussed at
https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/BugReporting#Debugging_a_single_transaction
