Bug Description

Binary package hint: cupsys

If I remove all the files from /var/spool/cups and restart the daemon it'll run for a while, then as soon as a file gets created in /var/spool/cups the daemon crashes with the following in /var/log/messages:

Jul 19 14:47:32 moose [881012.906851] cupsd[20730]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 000000000040bded rsp 00007ffffff539e0 error 4
