OK, so are you running an ~arch system?
If you don't need cups 1.2.* then I think the path of least resistance is to 
downgrade your cups to 1.1.*

I found this:
http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?cups-1.2.1-r2

which although cryptic seems to imply some sort of config change between 1.1 
and 1.2 that requires some symlinks. There did not appear to be any relevant 
bugs in bugzilla. 

So...I don't know...
