No cache digests?

After lurking for many months now (and picking up some very
valuable comments in the process), I've come across an issue
getting cache digests going which has me stuck.

I'm simply trying to peer digests only with a close proxy
but neither of us have had success. My config is a K6-333
with 128MB RAM, Debian Linux (slink), 2.2.5 kernel and
the packaged Squid (2.1Patched). His config is a FreeBSD
system with Squid 2.2.1 built from source.

We added a sibling line to squid.conf and changed icp_access
rules, which saw ICP queries work OK. Yet we actually
wanted digests, so based on squid.conf's I've found referred
to in previous mailing list articles, we added the extra
keywords: no-query no-netdb-exchange (we share a common
local router so roundtrip times are likely to be the same)

Still no CACHE messages in access.log. We saw the reference
to the bug with different systems names and checked we had
the correct name references and setups. That doesn't
appear to be the problem.

Cachemgr mgr:digest_stats tells me that 'peer digests are disabled
:no stats is available'. mgr:store_digest gives me an invalid
URL.

I've come to the conclusion that neither of us has digests
enabled in the code. he doesn't because he didn't provide
the -configure option and I don't because it's not packaged
in Debian by default. Am I right?
