        Greetings!

        The www/squid package shoulbe be updated to include latest patches
        available at www.squid-cache.org.

        After recent Squid updates (at least since 2.5.7nb8 and up to 2.5.8)
        the Squid proxy may abort with "xstrndup: Asserton 'n' failed" or
        other errors when receiving certain odd DNS responses. This may also
        cause to Squid shutdown by the frequent child failures. For details
        please see the following URL:

        
http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.5/bugs/#squid-2.5.STABLE8-dns_assert

>How-To-Repeat:

        Set "log_fqdn on" inside squid.conf and try to access, for example,
        www.im2.com site.

>Fix:

        Pullup this and other latest patches:
