Well.. Squid is HTTP/1.0, and 100 Continue MUST NOT be sent to a
HTTP/1.0 client, simply because the concept of 1xx messages doesn't
exists in HTTP/1.0.

RFC 2616 10.1 Informational 1xxx

   [...]
   class of status code. Since HTTP/1.0 did not define any 1xx status
   codes, servers MUST NOT send a 1xx response to an HTTP/1.0 client
   except under experimental conditions.
