I made the following change to printer.c in the gen_util applet:

diff -u -r1.16 printer.c
--- printer.c   1999/01/19 02:22:21     1.16
+++ printer.c   1999/04/06 02:40:14

        int height;
        static GtkTargetEntry drop_types [] = { 
                { "text/uri-list", 0, TARGET_URI_LIST },
+               { "_NETSCAPE_URL", 0, TARGET_URI_LIST }
        };
        static gint n_drop_types = sizeof (drop_types) / sizeof(drop_types[0]);

And I can succesfully drop onto the print applet from Netscape. 
Rejected drops don't seem to work quite right, so there
seems to be something not quite in the proxying code, but
otherwise it seems fine.
