Thinking about it further, the proper (and simple) solution that also 
handles the cases of symbols disappearing (which is not unlikely for 
these internal functions) would be to have all cups package(s) that use 
these internal functions in libcups2 depend on exactly the same version 
and Debian revision of libcups2 (e.g. Depends: libcups2 (= 1.5.3-1)).
