[STR New]

In CUPS 1.5.2 filter/pdftops.c has a hardcoded log message
-----------------------------------------------------------
fprintf(stderr, "DEBUG: Started filter pstops (PID %d)\n", pstops_pid);
-----------------------------------------------------------
where it is not clear which "pstops" is launced,
the CUPS filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops
or perhaps a system binary /usr/bin/pstops which could
be e.g. /usr/bin/pstops from the old "psutils".

I suggest to show the actual filter binary as it is done
in the other "Started filter" messages, i.e.:
-----------------------------------------------------------
fprintf(stderr, "DEBUG: Started filter %s (PID %d)\n",
        pstops_path, pstops_pid);
-----------------------------------------------------------
