    Also, keep in mind you'll need to append your rc.conf with:
    squid_enable="YES"

    It does seem strange that a port's behaviour would be controlled by the
    rc.conf, but I suppose that's how the maintainer wanted it done. If this
    is going to be how it is from now on, perhaps squid_enable should be
    mentioned in /etc/defaults/rc.conf ?
