OK, I think I might finally have this HTTP chunking issue sorted, at least partially. In the case where only one job is sent at one (so IPP's Print-Job is used instead of Create-Job), the attached patch prevents the use of HTTP chunking for me.

This needs to be enabled by setting your printer URI to "ipp://<printserver>/ipp/printername?nohttpchunking=yes". At that point, the printer is treated as if it does not understand HTTP/1.1 in the code.

Notes:

1. I still get the Expect: 100-continue header for some reason, regardless of my attempts to disable it, so I gave up there.
2. The Novell servers I have access to work regardless - they only require the document-format patch in comment 12.
