 An *IPv4* DNS packet is received.

 ... then Squid crashes.

 This indicates either a crash handling DNS packets, or somewhere
 unrelated and not logged.

 The weird thing is that earlier successful packets were received from
 the wildcard UDP listening address [::]. Yet the first sign of an
 IPv4-only UDP receive dies.

 Please try todays 3.2 snapshot tarball, if it can be replicated there
 please get a full debug trace (level ALL,9).
 Giving that a brief look may show the crash somewhere else. Then please
 follow the usual bug reporting procedure (checking the crash is not
 already known and reported, then reporting along with the trace).
