My filthy workaround for this issue:

cd /tmp
wget 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gtk+2.0/libgtk2.0-0_2.10.11-0ubuntu3_powerpc.deb
dpkg -x libgtk2.0-0_2.10.11-0ubuntu3_powerpc.deb foo
cd /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/printbackends
sudo mv libprintbackend-cups.so libprintbackend-cups.so.broken
sudo cp /tmp/foo/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/printbackends/libprintbackend-cups.so .

This replaces the faulty library with the version from Feisty, which
apparently doesn't suffer from this bug, while leaving the package
manager none the wiser.  Hopefully the next upgrade will fix this rather
than breaking it again.
