Is this an altered squid? What version of squid is it?

Yes - which means that there is either a bug in the challenge cache
flush code, or you've altered squid somehow and introduced such a bug.

Squid MUST NOT call YR when there are outstanding requests. There is
specific code to prevent this (by erroring all outstanding requests)
when a helper error occurs and causes a YR to be needed.

It may be a bug - I'm reviewing the code now. Please confirm that this
occurs with a squid with no changes to authenticate.c or auth_ntlm.c.

Rob
