Thank you for this report.

Firstly, can you replicate this with 3.0.STABLE15? There have been a few
ntlm_auth handling fixes recently.

By 'usually occurs when I do a squid reload' do you have any actual
trace from it happening without a reload operation? And it there any
difference visible?

I suspect this is another side effect of an FD issue we are aware of
that occurs only during reconfigure and shutdown. The fix for that one
is taking a while and may need to be a part of 3.1.
