I tried to reproduce this with 1.1.beta7 and could not. I killed a
parent cache and then restarted it. The child cache began fetching
objects from it again after about 60 seconds (the hardcoded value in
neighborsUdpPing().

        /* skip any cache where we failed to connect() w/in the last 60s */
        if (squid_curtime - e->last_fail_time < 60)
            continue;
