To do this you would need to implement an external acl check based on the
Content-Length request header as an alternative to request_body_max_size.

Example helper:

#!/bin/sh
while read size limit; do
         if [ "${size}" -gt "${limit}" ]; then
                 echo ERR
         else
                 echo OK
         fi
done

accepts ACLs to be defined with a single argument specifying the file size
limit for this acl.

alternatively you could extend the implementation of the
request_body_max_size to be acl driven.

Not possible with Squid-2.4.
