Well, assuming that CentOS is faithfully copying the Red Hat RPMs,
RHEL5's 3.8.2-7.el5_6.6 contains the same buggy fix for CVE-2011-0192
as Fedora's 3.9.4-3, and 3.8.2-7.el5_6.7 contains the same corrected fix
as 3.9.4-4.  If you skipped 3.8.2-7.el5_6.6 you should never have seen
that bug at all; so I'm not entirely sure what to make of this, other
than that it probably isn't the identical issue.

One thing I'm wondering is whether your print daemon needs to be
restarted so that it starts using the updated library ...
