This is most likely a bug with persistent connections. Not necessarily
a Squid bug, either.

Squid thought that the next request starts at the byte where 'usuario'
appears. But you can see that its really a little bit later, where the
'GET' is.

This can be caused when the client (browser) sends the wrong content
length value for the request body. It could also simply be a bug
with Squid. If you find a way to reproduce it reliably, let us know.
