[SQU] redirector output ignored

Hi all,
 
   I am having the problem that Alexandre Rafalovitch had couple months ago.
I have
tried to find a solution for the problem, but so far still haven't found
one. Is this a bug in
Squid? If anyone know, please help me... I really appreciate it.
 
Thank a lot.

Good Day,
 
I am using redirector for advanced use and seem to hit what might be a
bug, or might be my misunderstanding. If somebody could confirm/deny the
situation I would be grateful. I don't have enough C knowledge to trace
what is going on through squid sources (tried though :-{ ).
 
The situation as follows:
 
squid cache already has a cached copy of a page (eg. www.google.com
<http://www.google.com> )
client request www.google.com <http://www.google.com> (client's cache is
empty)
redirector is called and it returns 302:www.someotheraddress.com (either
301 or 302 would do same)
squid ignores it as keeps going with fetching and delivering cached copy
of a original request.
 
Looking at debug from both redirector and squid, I can see the request
coming through, being redirected, redirection being acknowledged but
ignored by squid.
 
Same thing with a page that is not in squid cache works as expected. (I
see www.someotheraddress.com <http://www.someotheraddress.com> )
 
Since, most redirectors either always let the url through or never let
it through, I could see how this could be a subtle bug.
 
I can send any debug output if needed.
 
Setup: Squid 2.3-stable2 on linux box. I have read release notes/bugs
for 2.3-stable3, but nothing like this was mentioned as fixed.
 
Regards,
Alex
