4.0-CURRENT.  Also effects prior versions

>Description:

the lp shell script should take the -s (silence) option.  lpr is
basicaly silent anyway and Applixware insists on calling lp with the -s
option.  Accepting and throwing it way makes printing work out of the
box and doesn't appear to behave incorrectly.

>How-To-Repeat:

lp -s <file>

>Fix:
