Try removing /etc/pam.d/squid. I have just tried this (on Debian Sarge,
pam 0.76-22, squid 2.5 stable 7) myself and it works with no
manipulation of pam (odd I thought... but if it works).

squid.conf .. (relevant bits only)

### START
auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/pam_auth
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm Proxy Authentication Required
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours

acl authenticated proxy_auth REQUIRED

http_access allow authenticated
### END

And that's it. Works fine.
