Hi,

for compilation on OS/2 I had to remove line 5 of inet_ntop.c
#include <arpa/inet.h>

Otherwise I get redefine-errors
(probably due to missing
#ifndef ...
#define ...
lines in the OS/2 header files)
But all things defined in arpa/inet.h are also defined in netinet/in.h
so <arpa/inet.h> is not needed here.

Without this #include cvs code from 9.1.2002 compiles and works
(again) for my Epson GT-9500 scanner (mustek not tested).

Access through saned only works (I only tested localhost)
if I start saned with -d parameter. (same behaviour as always)
Without this parameter scanimage -L shows nothing.
I did not try the inetd - approach.

I used the new Xsane-0.83 frontend and even the 'gocr-button'
in the xsane-viewer worked :-)
