/etc/hosts is not needed when using the cache_peer based request
forwarding, but does not hurt either (not used by Squid).

Then register a bug report. It is supposed to connect to the port given
in your cache_peer directive.

Unless.. there is one thing. Make sure you are not using an
always_direct directive as this bypasses the cache_peer.

In any case register a bug report. The port should still be 7777 even if
you use always_direct.

Correct. These directives became obsolete by the addition of accelerator
related options to http_port.
