Okay, I figured that after reading the patch man page, so went ahead and did

patch -p0 < lpt2.diff

on a configured 1.3.1 untarred source. After 'make' and 'make install' I
find that I no longer crash like before, but I have the same problems
previously outlined:

hogthreshold of 1 lets my cpu stay down, but won't let me print without
taking extraneous steps after issuing the print command.

hogthreshold of 2 keeps my cpu at about 86%, but lets the app's print
command yield immediate printing without extraneous steps.
