Hi,
in version 3.7.1 the file configure.in contains
AC_ARG_ENABLE(duplex,
[ --disable-duplex disable duplex printing
[default=yes]], ,
enable_duplex="yes")
If you look carefully at this autoconf snippet you
will see that this actually _enables_ duplex printing.
To correct this you can replace "disable" by "enable".
This keeps the current behaviour to have duplex
enabled by default, see the appended patch.
The trailing ":" in the patch prevents the configure
script from exiting with an error when duplex printing
is turned _off_.
This error occurs due to the trap function for signal
0 which uses the return code of the last command
test x"$enable_duplex" = xyes && ...
as the exit code for the whole configure script.
ciao

Of course I found the entry in the ChangeLog concerning
the incorrectly reversed duplex setting _after_ I submitted
the patch...
The new version leaves the "--disable-duplex" syntax
and just changes the description.
File Added: patch-af
Correct description of duplex option
