FYI, for anyone else who might find this entry, I found two possible
workarounds:

a) use pdftops to convert a pdf file into a ps file that will safely
print (note, this is pdftops, *not* pdf2ps)

b) installing ghostscript, ghostscript-x, libgs9, and libgs9-common
packages 9.16~dfsg~0-0ubuntu1 found here (proposed for Ubuntu Wily
15.10):

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/9.16~dfsg~0-0ubuntu1

The b) option is nicer because I'm back to being able to print natively
from my usual programs, and fortunately it did not require any extra
dependencies beyond those already present on my 15.04 system.
