Yes, it is fixed. My apologies for not having read upstream's 
changelog; this bug report can be closed now.

In CUPS' web interface, in "Modèle/Pilote pour $my_printer" 
("Model/Driver for $my_printer?) I selected "Canon S800 - 
CUPS+Gutenprint v5.XX (en)", where XX was the version number at the 
time.
The top of /etc/cups/ppd/$my_printer.ppd reads :
  *ModelName:     "Canon S800"
