HI,

I'm now running HEAD (for latest SSL bump fixes) on revision 8886 on a
new box pulled last Friday, so may it has those fixed. The above bug
was from HEAD from early august.

If that does not help, I'll try "icap_persistent_connections off".

I also found ready that one should have "bypass=1" to ensure squid
continue if it cannot talk to icap?

icap_service service_req reqmod_precache bypass=1
icap://127.0.0.1:1344/squidclamav
icap_service service_resp respmod_precache bypass=1
icap://127.0.0.1:1344/squidclamav

Thanks,

Sean
