It looks like those references to internal implementation details could be
replaced by calls to httpGetField. But after that, I also ran into problems
in kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.cpp, where I'm not quite sure how to handle
the lines dealing with authentication strings -- the API functions I found
also want the authentication scheme as an argument.
