yup, it was just released a few days ago! I haven't had a chance to  
try it myself.

no, the directions in CacheFu are to set up Squid *behind* Apache, or  
not use Apache at all. https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/CacheFu/ 
trunk/CacheFu/README.txt

"The file is set up for two different types of configurations: (1)  
direct access to Squid, and (2) Squid behind apache.  Files for these  
2 different configurations are contained in the Squid_direct  
directory and the squid_behind_apache directory, respectively. Look  
at the directory appropriate to your setup."

i guess there's only one way to find out, and that's to try it! ;)
