*** WORKAROUND ***
* point your browser to <http://localhost:631/printers/PDF>
* Administration dropdown, select Modify printer
* enter admin credentials
* select radio button CUPS-PDF (Virtual PDF Printer) next to Local Printers and 
click Continue
* on the next page click Continue
* click on Browse... button next to Provide a PPD File
* navigate to  /usr/share/ppd/cups-pdf/CUPS-PDF.ppd
* click Modify Printer

result:  
* now there is /etc/cups/ppd/PDF.ppd file
* printing to PDF works

This seem to be a missing file problem.  How the file in /etc/cups/ppd
went missing is beyond me, I suspect an update.
