Sounds like perhaps updating the cups-headers port to 1.1.23 would be the
solution, and has a ticket:

<http://trac.macports.org/ticket/12768>

Though the number of people running 10.3 and needing cups-headers is
probably quite small at this point, so you may be the only one available now
to actually test this...
