Hi, Oliver.  I have changed the backend to use SANE_TYPE_FIXED instead of
SANE_TYPE_INT, and it fixes the problem with switching xsane to "Copy" or
"Fax" mode.  Hopefully you can still fix the problem in xsane that allowed
the runaway recursion to happen in the first place.  Once you have fixed
that, I can test it by changing one line in the backend to temporarily
switch back to SANE_TYPE_INT.
