I think this is one of the things fixed in the version in experimental.
It's due to reach unstable soon once the X11R7.1 transition is ready to
go, so I'll check in with you again after that.

Bug#385966: xprint: Seg-fault when printing from firefox

[Anders Boström]

Package: xprint
Version: 1:1.0.2-1
Severity: grave

The amd64 version of xprint don't work any more. It seg-faults every
time I try to print from firefox, and also leads to a firefox
crash. xphelloworld also leads to seg-fault, with similar strace.

Firefox (and mozilla) is the only major application using xprint,
motivating the high severity.

At least pre-xorg 7.0 versions of xprint worked fine under
amd64. Also, the 32-bit x86 version is still working, but with ugly
results.

strace from Xprt when xphelloworld is executed is attached.
