Hallo, Amos,

Why (as far as you can be clairvoyant)?

It doesn't happen always, it only happens sometimes.
That makes testing difficult - I don't dare to run the new squid version
on a "productive" system, and the last time I've seen this message on my
local system is some weeks ago.

As I've told some days ago both machines where I've seen these messages
run "dnsmasq" as DNS, not ISC-bind.

Restarting squid helps for some time, but maybe the real problem would
have disappeared by only waiting some time too ...

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
