Thanks for your reply!

Here's the header I'm receving with curl on my squid 3.1 machine:

curl -0Iv http://register.dpma.de/DPMAregister/marke/experte.kopf.form

But I'm not quite sure what's wrong with this header ?

What this means is that an apparently HTTP header is received from the server which violates the required HTTP syntax. It is detected on arrival before anything else happens, which is why none of your attempts at config bypasses are working.

==> Accept-Encoding header is allowed by default, allowing it manually as well is a no-op.

==> Denying an object from being stored by Squid does not prevent theupstream server from generating invalid responses.

Squid-2.6 has almost no HTTP/1.1 support. All it takes is for some
HTTP/1.1 feature which 3.x are supposed to parse and process being
invalid syntax, but which 2.6 does not have any support for even parsing
to detect that invalidity.
  I'm not saying that is the issue, just that its trivially possible to
get this type of distinction without any bugs or regression actually
being present.

You need to get a copy of the headers which Squid is receiving from the
upstream server and see what is wrong with them.
