As far as I can see, the only changes in sanei_scsi.c after the release
of sane-backends-1.0.12 affecting Linux are indentation fixes and
similar "formal" modifications. But the "real" code is the same. So I
don't think that your problems are related to sanei_scsi.c. Anyway,
could you send me the log output from trying a scan with the backend
version 1.0.12 and a newer version, while SANEI_DEBUG_EPSON and
SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_SCSI are set to 255?
