This is misinformation due to a misunderstanding on my part. The fix is
in 1.6.2.

At http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.6/relnotes.html:

   CUPS 1.6 clients using the ServerName directive in client.conf did
   not work with CUPS 1.3.x or older servers (STR #4231, STR #4291)

Which also explains why I do not experience the problem with a 1.5.3
server.
