Accessing virtual Web-servers with Squid v1.1.* and Squid v2.0 ...

Dear Squid users,

I was wondering if Squid v1.1 knows how to deal with virtual Web-servers.
When I access a Squid v1.1.22 proxy-server the HTTP/1.1 query will be
translated to a HTTP/1.0 query.. At least, this is what I see at our
Web-server.. Observe the next session:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Desire 23> telnet spin.accu.nl 3128 # A telnet to a Squid v1.1 server
Trying 194.151.46.8 ...
Connected to spin.accu.nl.
Escape character is '^]'. # Get an URL from the proxy with HTTP/1.1
GET
http://www.surfnet.nl/service-desk/diensten/ondersteunend/caching/.Cache_ser
ver_test HTTP/1.1

PS The object (the text "Bla bla bla") was the same on both occasions and
   thus the host: directive was ignored....

==============================================================================
In the access.log file at the Web-server on www.surfnet.nl I see:
info 132> tail -f httpd-access.log | grep Cache
spin.accu.nl - - [18/Oct/1998:01:05:04 +0200] "GET
/service-desk/diensten/ondersteunend/caching/.Cache_server_test HTTP/1.0"
200 771
spin.accu.nl - - [18/Oct/1998:01:05:28 +0200] "GET
/service-desk/diensten/ondersteunend/caching/.Cache_server_test HTTP/1.0"
200 771

In this file I see:
- A HTTP/1.0 instead of HTTP/1.1 ..
- The object (the text "Bla bla bla") was the same on both occasions and
  thus the host: directive seems to be ignored.... the request will be
  send to the Web-server on www.surfnet.nl instead of to the Web-server
  on www.rug.nl :-(

My questions are:
+ Does squid v1.1 known how to deal with HTTP/1.1 ??
+ Is squid v2.0 able to deal with HTTP/1.1 ....

Cheers, Henny
