Squid allows redirectors to specify "301 Moved permanently" or "302 Moved
temporarily" responces. This returns a http responce telling the client to
re-request the redirected url, so all relative links in the redirected pages
should be OK.

all that is required is that the URL returned by the redirector is prefixed
with "301:" or "302:". Most redirectors let you do this.
