Heh if you are running Debian and lazy, you could

'apt-get install squid -y ; apt-get install squid3 -y'

Youd have squid 2.7 and squid3 both installed.

But I know, thats just being lazy, you can install two squids just
change the name and location of your binaries on one of them, and its
cache directories, as well. Assuming squid is resident on a pc and not a
router that is. It should be pretty straight forward.
