forwarding loop detected

Hi,

I have got a problem with 2 proxys. They are both running Linux and
Squid/1.NOVM.17. I have no X-forwarded-for set on any of the hosts. The
one uses the other as a parent. When a client uses this this proxy the
request is forwarded to the parent. It works just fine, but in the
parents cache.log this is printed:

This comes each time a client uses the "child"-box. What could it be?
