Bob, while you looked over the archives you overlooked the answer from
Michael Sweet to Buck Huppman:
Currently the CUPS-specific v6 DLLs are not available, but they also
are not necessary - most of the CUPS-specific behavor is provided
by the Win2k drivers + the PPD files that cupsaddsmb exports (which
are modified versions of the ones in /etc/cups/ppd).
