It's not.

The duplex facilities are not available for any application using the
GTK or Qt print dialogues because CUPS has not provided information
about them.

CUPS has not provided information about them them because it gets its
information from the Duplex option in the PPD file. The brother PPD does
not provide such an option. There is no bug.

The inability to print in duplex is not related to the greying-out in
the print dialogues.
