The environment variable MOZ_PRINTER_NAME is not set when printing using the
Postscript (non-Xprint) printing method.  The default print command is
lpr ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+'-P'}${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME} but in fact lpr is never
invoked with the -P option, as can be easily seen by creating an lpr script
and echoing the arguments.

Note that I have MOZILLA_POSTSCRIPT_PRINTER_LIST='sp lp ps _default'.  No
matter which printer I select, MOZ_PRINTER_NAME isn't set, and the printout
goes to the default printer.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. export MOZILLA_POSTSCRIPT_PRINTER_LIST='sp lp ps _default'
2. mozilla
3. select Print and select one of the printers in the list

Actual Results:  
Printout is sent to default printer, not selected printer.

Expected Results:  
Printout should be sent to selected printer.
IMHO this is a DUPlicate of bug 161634 ("envvar should not be freed after
PR_SetEnv") ...
