They will also need their own squid.conf 2.x and 3.x have enough
different settings and requirements to make them not able to share one.

The logs and cache formats do not differ enough to be incompatible.

Thats all if you wish to run them at separate times.

If you wish to _run_ both versions simultaneously there are additional
configuration details to be careful of keeping separate as well. The
different squid.conf will help with this.
see http://wiki.squid-cache.org/MultipleInstances for the list of
settings that need to be unique.
