Fantastic, that helps! Now I've beaten the magic 1min: 49.270s for a full build of sane-backends-1.0.9-pre2 on a dual Alpha ev67 667MHz, using both CPUs, with DEC's cc. This machine has 1GB memory (PC100 ECC, 4 modules per bank, i.e. 256-bit bus) and 4MB L2 cache per CPU. No, it's not mine, unfortunately! Can we add the "-N" flag somewhere, either in configure.in or in the documentation?
