Gone.

The history behind this is in bug #148757.

I believe it is now UTF-8 upstream.

This shared library is only used internally by CUPS (it is used by several of
the CGI handlers).  It is simply to share code between CUPS programs.

Both fixed.

> The PIE problem:

I've removed --enable-pie from the configure options as this is (sort of) done
automatically upstream.

The upstream build process is not sophisticated enough to handle passing
exactly the right parameters.  It uses -fPIC (not -fPIE) when compiling, which
Jakub assures me is simply slightly less efficient that -fPIE in some cases. 
Indeed, the resulting executables behave as PIEs and seem to have the correct
ELF flags set.

The upstream discussion about it is here:
http://cups.org/str.php?L3691

Please take a look at cups-1.4.6-6.fc14.
