I think you've got it.  I did a wget -S http://localhost:631 on both the 
affected and
unaffected machines.  On the affected machine, wget reported

  Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

On an unaffected machine, wget reports

 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

So, now we know that cupsd is definitely confused on the affected 
machine.  How to get
it unconfused?  I've tried emerge -C cups, then emerge cups, but that 
doesn't fix the
problem.
