I am running here clustered X-terminal servers with cups on it as print service. I have the problem with feisty version as well as with the 1.2.11 (compiled as recommended above). I can contribute this: when i have a stalled print job, i see one additional pipe handle each time cups tries to reprint or reconnect to the printer. This way i the open file number is exceeded within minutes, you can watch it online. A cupsys force-reload brings the number of pipes back to two. Until the bug is fixed i have a small script driven by cron which does this reload when the number of pipes exceeds 50. That is not nice, but it prevents cups from getting quickly unusable. With Debian Etch file servers i do not see a similar problem. I desperately hope that someone can fix this...soon.
