Hi, Joe.  I decided to go ahead and add ptal-printd, because in my experience
printing with hpoj has been a support nightmare without it.  :-)

I committed ptal-printd to CVS and rewrote large portions of PRINT-HOWTO.
The command-line syntax of ptal-printd has changed, and I think I've fixed
the security issues to my liking now.  Please try it out and let me know
ASAP if there are any remaining problems.

On a different matter, I did manage to reproduce the xojpanel "no-start"
problem, with 64 failures in 500 tries, but I haven't yet gotten down to
root cause.  I'll put that down as a TODO for 0.8.  :-)
