Build and install stable6 in the same manner you build stable5, then
restart the Squid service.

grep "^ *[a-z]" squid.conf >squid.conf.clean

then comment squid.conf.clean to document why it is configured in a
certain manner

and finnally

    mv squid.conf squid.conf.old
    mv squid.conf.clean squid.conf

to make the cleaned version your default, making future maintenance easier
and less error prone after upgrading.. you always have the current
documentation in squid.conf.default if needed.
