As I said this is a different thing and harmless, most likely from the
initialization of the SSL client code due to not having sslproxy_cafile
set.

There is quite many SSL contexts in Squid-3:

  * One per https_port
  * One per ssl enabled cache_peer
  * One global for forwarding of https:// requests (sslproxy_* directives)

The timeframe is when I (or MARA Systems) have a customer requiring the
functionality, or someone else submits a patch implementing the function.
I have not yet studied how complex it would be to add the renegotiation
requirements to request SSL certificates in the ACL code but it probably
isn't all trivial. SSL certificate negotiation is quite different from all
other forms of authentication or acl checks.
