I'm telling you for the third time: these prototypes have no place in
your C file, they are defined in headers which are to be included.

No. sanei_usb_close() takes a SANE_Int, not a SANE_Int*. In English,
get rid of that "&".

You must link against the relevant libraries, with -l parameters. By
far the easiest way of doing it right is to copy your file into the
backend directory with sane-backends and to modify Makefile.in in the
directory to include your backend in the build. I don't even know off
the top of my head which libraries to link against.
