At least the ia64 buildd doesn't do that:
http://experimental.debian.net/fetch.php?&pkg=samba&ver=2%3A3.2.5-4%
7Ebpo41%2B1&arch=ia64&stamp=1233662385&file=log&as=raw

All the successful build logs show that the bpo version of libcups got
installed.  So changing the build-dep to just libcupsys2-dev for etch
backports seems better to me (to not force the backported libcups on
people who install the backported samba, if nothing else).

Cheers,
