Hi Paul,

Although you're trying with x86_64, using SunOS i386 I've been able to run cups
instead of cups15 just fine for quite awhile now... 
I have cups in my default options and only remove it explicitly from ghostscript
with 'PKG_OPTIONS.ghostscript= -cups'

here are package files used that I have in my tree using cups instead of cups15 so far:
> lang/openjdk7/Makefile:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> lang/openjdk8/Makefile:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> misc/libreoffice4/Makefile:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> net/samba4/options.mk:.  include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/cups-filters/Makefile:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/ghostscript-gpl/buildlink3.mk:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/ghostscript-gpl/options.mk:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/libgnomecups/Makefile:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/libgnomecups/buildlink3.mk:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/libgnomeprint/Makefile:.include "../../print/libgnomecups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/libgnomeprint/buildlink3.mk:.  include "../../print/libgnomecups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/py-cups/Makefile:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> print/py-cups/buildlink3.mk:#.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> x11/gtk2/options.mk:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> x11/gtk3/options.mk:.include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"
> x11/qt4-libs/options.mk:.  include "../../print/cups/buildlink3.mk"

> richard@omnis:/home/richard/src/pkgsrc/print/cups-filters$ pkg_info |grep cups
> libgnomecups-0.2.3nb15 GNOME interface to CUPS
> cups-2.0.2          Common UNIX Printing System

it is entirely possible as well that, for example, trunk's cups-filters might need some TLC
