Syntax error: you have to pass two parameters to gcc, a "-L" telling
it a directory to look in for libraries, and "-l" to specify the
library (in this case, "-lsane", I think). "-L" is typically before
the C file in the command line, while the "-l" options are usually
last.

Who suggested that? This is decidedly wrong. C is a very logical
language but also quite picky about what you feed it with. If the same
argument works in both functions, then that borders on a miracle.

As Henning suggested, you have a C problem, nothing really particular
to SANE.
