Lionel, Luc,

We experienced about the same bug on our print server pool (running Etch 
and the 1.2.7-4 package) . Cups was crashing daily during the cron.daily 
runs (where the daemon is restarted after log rotation: see 
/etc/logrotate.d/cupsys).

Investigation showed this was due to duplicated entries in printers.conf

Could you check whether you had this problem *because* of a duplicated 
entry or if this is a completely unrelated problem?

To Cupsys maintainers: I have the test case handy and even a test server 
where I can happily crash cups in case some investigation is needed.
