your system contains slightly broken include files. see

http://www.python.org/sf/1244610

for a discussion and a workaround (for openbsd), and

http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84219

for a freebsd-specific fix.

CUPS is the Common Unix Printing System. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUPS for more info.
