[STR New]

Please remove the 5 second wait_bc loop in the socket backend after sending
the file.

> However, the reasons for keeping this workaround in
> place (waiting for back-channel data) are going away
> soon, so maybe in CUPS 1.5 (at least) we can just
> remove the extra "wait for back-channel data" code
> since it isn't needed in the general case - just for
> drivers or "auto-setup tools" on Mac OS X that close
> their stdout pipe when they are done sending data but
> not done reading a response.
> 
> Care to file a bug?
