Head's UP! Don't touch cupsd (stop / start / reload / restart) with 1.4.7

I've seen on multiple systems now if you do anything with the scheduler, it will nuke all of the d files and leave the c files, so any pending jobs will be lost by doing so much as re-loading cupsd.  This is an extension of a bug I had previously filed, but thought it was localized to the upgrade, it appears to be with anything that touches the daemon.  Just wanted to spread the word so no one gets surprises like i did :-)
