There are two things that you can do:
(1) Enable superpages by setting vm.pmap_pg_ps_enabled to "1" in
/boot/loader.conf. A 4MB superpage mapping on i386 consumes a single PV
entry instead of the 1024 entries that would be consumed by mapping 4MB of
4KB pages. Whether or not this will help depends on aspects of Squid and
Dansguardian that I can't predict.
(2) You shouldn't be afraid of increasing vm.pmap.pv_entry_max. However,
you should watch vm.kvm_free as you do this. It will decrease in proportion
to the increase in vm.pmap.pv_entry_max. Don't let vm.kvm_free drop too
close to 0. I would consider too close on the order of 25-50MB.
