Oops, meat to do the squid-dev move on that.

As for the cleanup...

.h cleanup:
  - going in next time I have a spare minute to check for tweaks.

The file re-arranging polish:
  - I'm kind of in favour of it as a pure file-movements-only
alteration. 3.2 has no feature-requests yet and back-porting across a
file-re-arranged setup is likely to be more trouble than its worth.
  - If you think you can get it done in a reasonable timespan to get
done by the RC releases great. I don't think the PRE need to wait for
it, its polish after all not a true feature.
  - It is your baby though.

If you have the resources to move a few 2.6 features to 3.1 they should
be timelined by 31 March or officially shifted to 3.2 pending later
re-evaluation. Yes?
  - I've added the LogDaemon as one such, I can do at a pinch.
