And HTTP forbids this message to be sent to Squid (MUST NOT) as Squid is a
HTTP/1.0 client (RFC 2616 8.2.3 Use of the 100 (Continue) Status, last
point)

The upstream proxy is certainly malfunctioning here. It is possible the
malfunction maybe (but just maybe, in fact quite unlikely) is in turn
caused by a malfunction at the web server.

Which is correct according to the HTTP/1.0 specificatios, but which
unfortunately terminates this request immediately.
