So, problem solved. It's a brain-dead SuSE patch to the LPRng 
sources in their LPRng-3.7.4 package on SuSE Linux 7.3 that changes
the default job format from "f" to "l". Although they create
an lpd.conf file within that same patch, it probably never occurred
to them that they should perhaps put it there, so that it may be
found.

So, it was never the fault of apsfilter. I would like to apologize
for all the unnecessary work I caused, and thank all of you again
for your friendly help. Many thanks to you as well, Garance.

I will now work around above crap by adding a default_format entry
to lpd.conf, where it belongs.
