I got this crash by adding the obsolete (removed from 1.6.x on)

BrowsePoll <host>

to /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. The crash disappeared after removing the entry.

Everyone who suffers this bug, please check your cupsd.conf for obsolete or mistyped entries and remove them (or at least comment them out). Obsolete from 1.6.x are as far as I know: BrowsePoll, BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, BrowseOrder, and BrowseRemoteProtocols. Also the argument "cups" for BrowseLocalProtocols is obsolete, but I do not know whether the valid keyword with the invalid argument also causes the crash.
