[squid-users] 'Squid -k reconfigure' changes ownership of the swap.state file

Good day.

I have squid 2.5-stable7 installed on linux 2.4.27 box (Slackware 10).
When I try reconfigure squid with 'Squid -k reconfigure' it dies with
this messages in cache.log:

---[cache.log end]---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

when I look at swap.state this file I notice that ownership has changed to
"root.squid" instead of original "squid.squid". After manually change
ownershp back to "squid.squid" Squid start normally.

When I reconfigure it with 'squid -k shutdown ' ... 'squid' all
done well.

---[squid.conf begin]------------------------------------
cache_effective_user=squid
cache_effective_user=squid
cache_dir ufs /squid.cache 500 16 256
---[squid.conf end]--------------------------------------

Squid configure string:
 ./configure --disable-wccp --disable-snmp --enable-delay-pools \
--disable-ident-lookups --prefix=/usr/local --mandir=/usr/man \
--sysconfdir=/etc/squid --localstatedir=/var/squid --enable-async-io \
--enable-err-languages='English Russian-koi8-r'

Any ideas? Some help would be appreciate.
Thanks in advance.
