Start with trying to find a as simple possible test case, not requiring
a live populated cache..

Quite likely the swap.state from a unclean shutdown triggering the
problem is suffifient.

May also be dependent on the number of cache_dir you have, or other
configuration details (esp cache_swap_state directive), but not sure.

It does smell like there may be a Squid bug lurking here. But without
being able to reproduce it or it sticking out when reading the source
hunting it down is a bit problematic..
