hello Kathryn

well, belive it or not, i seem to have found the rascal!
it seems to be running

but i have problems with the download of backport files

this is in the apt-proxy.conf:
add_backend /backports/                                 \
        $APT_PROXY_CACHE/backports/                     \
        http://www.backports.org/debian/

this is in sources.file on the client:

# backports
deb http://garcon.linbit.com:9999/backports stable

and this is the line (also the one you asked for)
E: Malformed line 32 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)

this was in the sources.list before apt-proxy was installed, and it
worked deb http://www.backports.org/debian stable  -with what ever
package-

and i also have problems with the own packages, but that is i think the
same problem was that of the backport files!!!

well maybe you can work that out??
