I've tried getting DansGuardian to work with the latest versions of 
Tinyproxy, and have never succeeded.  Keep getting "malformed request" 
responses from Tinyproxy.  As such, I haven't changed the DG port to use 
anything other than Squid.

I guess I could add an OPTIONS knob for Squid it, defaulting to on.  Those 
that don't want Squid could disable it.
