Exactly what ./configure command line?

Consistent with AIO not being found. It is the disk I/O workhorse behind
the AUFS filesystem.

ufs is the older slower alternative you should still be able to use
while the AIO problem is being resolved. When AIO is working you can
switch between the two without any problem or loss of cache.

Do you have the development version of the libraries installed?
"libaio-dev" or something like that.

According to redbot.org that website is breaking the HTTP protocol.

It's sending a Vary: header on gzipped content, then none at all on
plain content. This breach of protocol can result in Squid serving up
plain content marked as gzipped or the reverse. The end result is
browsers being unable to decode the object for display.

It's also sending chunked encoded replies, which might result in empty
or garbage pages if passed through early Squid-3.0 releases (prior to
STABLE16).

"3.0.10" being 3.0.STABLE10 ?
