Oops. That would be me who is responsible for ab306.c. On the other
hand on first sight it maybe an error in the header (?), as I don't
see any suspicious changes between SANE 1.0.1 (oldest version in CVS)
and now. And I'm sure I ran 2.0.x at that time.

Well, as nobody else ever complained, it may be a bug in one single
kernel version or just nobody else uses 2.0.x anymore.

If you have too much time you can have a look at
/usr/include/asm/system.h:140 and find out why there is an
unterminated string.

Bye,
