The POST is requesting "sdch" (aka binary diff encoding) responses. If
you or any other proxy along that supply path are doing anything with
ICAP besides straight AV scanning that could be corrupting the diffs.

The problem is in the response to that POST. The newer 3.1.9 logs what
the problems is at debug level 1 ("debug_options ALL,1") including the
URL for tracking.

With that info you can drill down into the oprocessing are or a tcpdump
log and find out what the response actually is.
