Hi Kzjnet,
  Unfortunately a lot of change has gone on in Squid-3 without Windows
support being updated to work with the new features. That is slowly
being fixed but the official releases of Squid-3 still do not build
without extensive patching.

For this issue you will need to build with --enable-auth-basic=... and a
list of the helpers which do not contain build errors in your system.

The best Windows support (outside 2.7 which works fully) is in 3.HEAD
version, but even so the build does not work yet. If you are really
interested in helping all patches are welcome, they just need to be on
that 3.HEAD version to avoid duplicate work.
