[squid-users] squid 3.0STABLE14: Detected DEAD Parent [proxy]

Since v3.0 doesn't have IPv6 support, I set up the Polipo proxy (http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/polipo/) as a 6to4 relay in front of squid, by adding "cache_peer 127.0.0.1 parent 8123 3130" to squid.conf. I was able to browse multiple IPv6 sites such as ipv6.googe.com with 3.0.STABLE14-20090416 as the proxy in Firefox, for quite a while, before squid's cache.log spit out:

2009/04/19 20:10:20| Ready to serve requests.
2009/04/19 20:12:09| WARNING: Probable misconfigured neighbor at 127.0.0.1

2009/04/19 20:12:52| ipcacheParse: No Address records in response to 'www.ipv6.sixxs.net'

After building 3.0.STABLE14-20090419, I find the above issue surfaced much faster than with STABLE14-20090416. Since 20090416 is no longer downlable, I built STABLE14 dated 20090411. It lasted about as long as 20090416, but spit out slightly different logs:

2009/04/19 20:57:36| Ready to serve requests.

2009/04/19 21:00:39| 95%% of replies from '127.0.0.1' are UDP_DENIED

Could this issue be mitigated from the squid end, so it keeps talking to Polipo (which appears to remain functional)?
