[cups.development] ppd pageSize weirdness

[Michael Sweet]

OK, sorry, mixed up two posts I was responding to... :(

So this is on Mac OS X 10.5, and you were running CUPS 1.4.4 on it?  Make sure you run:

    sudo update_dyld_shared_cache

to flush the shared library cache.  Also, please remember that we don't support CUPS 1.4.x on 10.5 - you will likely run into problems since we don't test that configuration...
