Patch for /usr/bin/foomatic-rip to work around the bug

This is a patch to /usr/bin/foomatic-rip which works around the bug in
OpenOffice.org. This way OpenOffice.org prints correctly on local printers set
up with Foomatic (usually non-PostScript printers), but printing to a native
PostScript printer or to a remote printer will still be broken. So a fix in
OpenOffice.org is needed.

description: 
When printing with OpenOffice.org 1.1.0 ("File"/"Print") and changing option
settings using the "Properties" button in the printing dialog, the settings
apply only to the first page and not to the subsequent pages.

The problem is caused by the way how OpenOffice.org generates PostScript. It
puts the PostScript commands (taken from the PPD file) which are supposed to
apply to the whole document into the "%%BeginPageSetup ... %%EndPageSetup"
section of the first page and not into the "%%BeginSetup ... %%EndSetup" before
the first page. This way the options apply only to the first page.
