Ah, very old, the behaviour I described was for cachemgr.cgi v3.2.0.10 
and later.

The 3.1 version can only display the old style "Cache Manager menu" 
regardless of what the Squid server supports.

That also means it will not work with any Squid v7 or later proxies 
where the cache_object protocol has been dropped entirely.

My testing today found bug 5300, bug 5301 and few other annoyances in 
the v4+ CGI tool. So right now I am not recommending an upgrade, but it 
will be worth it once they are fixed.
