Perhaps this question is best directed at the squid list? While I wrote ntlm_auth, I'm not sure I can help with how squid is marking the state of the helpers. It might be that we need to have a better way to have ntlm_auth tell Squid that there is a problem now, but it might go away (previous helper designs had to be restarted for that to happen, but ntlm_auth can recover on it's own).
