OK... I'll keep an eye out for that.
LPRng is queueing and processing requests. The ifhp filter is
running and producing stuff on the printer. Nothing untoward at all
in LPRng per se.

What the signature or the build problem?
As for the build problem, I don't feel like backing out 167 Solaris
patches, re-installing the pre-built sunfreeware gcc-local and
repeating the default packaging in DISTRIBUTIONS/Solaris.pkg.
I don't want to do that though as getting back to where I am now
will take another 3 days. (55MHz CPU)

It wouldn't be highly regarded in literary circles: bad spelling in
the title doesn't command any respect. :-)
