squid -- confusing results on empty acl declarations

Description:

Applying an empty ACL list results in unexpected behavior: anything will match an empty ACL list. For example,

The meaning of the configuration gets very confusing when we encounter empty ACLs such as

acl something src "/path/to/empty_file.txt"
http_access allow something somewhere

gets parsed (with warnings) as

http_access allow somwhere

And similarily if you are using proxy_auth acls without having any auth schemes defined.
