Ok, Olle, as you can see, I run SuSE 8.2 as well and did not experience any problems compiling and installing. I have never used usr.local.org's binaries for Gimp, although I have used some others he has. I stay away from apt-get with the problems and potential problems it presents. I don't remember having a problem with sane on the first build of Gimp 1.3.x though. I have rpm files as well, if you would like to try it. It is installed so that it doesn't interfere with your 1.2.x install. We will need either a location for me to upload too or a direct transfer to you, as the rpm is quite large.
