File /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/20-squid solves the issue. Please add it to squid an squid3 package. Edit (71 bytes, text/plain)

I have confirmed this; squid is controlled using upstart so actually starts up after the NetworkManager has bought up the network interface as it depends on this event (which puts us in a slightly different/better position to the issue described in Fedora)

However, when the network configuration changes, squid does not restart and pickup any new resolv.conf configuration. This would impact on people using VPN (as above) or hopping between network locations which generate different resolv.conf configurations.
