Unless someone would launch some kind of denial of service
attack against your squid. The 2 lines are normally unrelated
to the out of file desc. problem.
Check access.log to see which kind of requests are being processed
by squid during the time of these error(s).
However you may need to increase the available no of file descriptors.
I do not know how to do this on OSX however.
