I can't publish the code as that's something I've been paid to write and
hence, it subject to the usual, draconic "even if you dream of code, it
belongs to us" employement contract clauses but this (including safely
sending signals to processes, restarts in certain intervals and
reliable process termination using a custom signal [specifically added
for squid]) can be implemented with a C program of less than 1000 lines
of code and such that it does "play well" with existing init scripts
(because it's just a command and not an attempt to remodel the whole
system).
