I have 4.4.3 installed and, as a matter of fact, some print problems I 
had before are indeed gone. This one persists, however.

It does the job too, but it's a bit less practical/more complicated to 
use. Until now, cups-pdf has been ok for what I need to do. Another 
use-case for which I often need to print PDF to PDF is to generate a 
PDF with parts of another PDF (choosing the pages I want in the new 
one). But I can use cups-pdf for this too.

Sorry to hear that... However, no need to hurry. There's a number of 
ways to bypass this problem.
