just curious, how an interface would do that?

Other reason as tcp retransmission timeout exceedings (which BTW would
resend one or another package not all) I can not even imagin a reason for
that other as an malicious attack (syn flood) because under normal
circunstancies the package sender *will_not* try retransmission endless
but mark the target unreachable

I guess squid would not get such packages at all but should be discarted
by your router at layer 3 or by your OS at layer 4 level where are checked
tcp flags and sequence numbers before they go to the application layer.
