One colleague of mine (François Aleno) even provided a printers.conf file that was causing daily crashes: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=378860#74 So, if someone takes this file, puts it in /etc/cups, and tries running the daily cron that restart cups....without it crashing, I think the bug can be considered as being fixed.
