Problem with cached entries w/ETag and request without If-None-Match header

I recently ran into a bug on Squid 2.7 regarding cached content with
ETags. Currently, if all cached entries for a URL include ETags, and a
request is received for said URL with no If-None-Match header, Squid
will serve a cached entry. This behavior does not follow RFC 2616. I
have attached a patch that prevents Squid from serving the cached
entries in said case here:
http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=2677

I would appreciate any feedback regarding this patch.

Thanks,
Jason
