A first rough linux port of this (partially based on RedHat's
lpr-0.19.1) can be found on the Net under
ftp://riemann.iam.uni-bonn.de/pub/users/roessler/lpr-tlr-971003.tgz.
It's almost untested, but it should be a good starting point
for your own porting efforts. (Additionally, it seems to run
with my setup. ;-)
