You won't really notice if the unlinkd helper is not working until
Squid has been used a lot..

Things to check:
 1. Do you have a unlink helper process running?

 2. What exacly is it that goes wrong in ipc.c when trying to start
the helper process?

A guess is that AmigaOS does not inherit sockets over a fork() or
exec(), or that there is some problem with the fork(). If the problem
is related to socket inheritance then you can try the other methods
of IPC channels (UNIX sockets, pipes, ...).
