Message:

Doesn't drop and regain priviledges anymore : no added security since we could regain them (we needed to regain them for PAM and some end user scripts). This is also more consistent.
Removed SGTERM handling stuff in cupspykota : now only SIGINT can be used.
Now outputs an error message when printing (but doesn't fail) if CUPS is
not v1.3.4 or higher : we need 1.3.4 or higher because it fixes some
problematic charset handling bugs (by only accepting ascii and utf-8,
but this is a different story...)
Now ensures only the supported exit codes are returned by cupspykota :
we used to exit -1 in some cases (see man backend for details).
