FYI, the cachemgr.cgi provided by current Squid tries to auto-detect the 
existence of a working MGR_INDEX and simply provides a URL to that 
instead of doing the "old" CGI interface things.

The reasons to use it are:
  1) when managing very outdated Squid versions, or
  2) managing Squid which have not yet had a tool providing MGR_INDEX 
installed yet.


The recent changes to squidclient "mgr:" support and the cache_object:// 
  URL scheme have had a few issues. I am currently setting up a test 
environment to analyze and re-document the new/current situation. 
Hopefully some detailed info can be added to the wiki in the coming days.
