I'll try installing sane-backends-1.0.10, and let you know the results. 
Do I have to wait until the avision web server comes up again to
download it?

I am new to Linux, but have 27 years programming experience, the last
few in C++, and, after a four year hiatus, have just done some C
programming (including CVS update) in Linux.  If you would like a code
review and development testing of your ADF code, I am available.  I
might even be able to contribute patches.

I currently use ABBYY FineReader 6.0 under dual boot Windows XP to do
scanning.  FineReader works for OCR under Windows 98/Win4Lin 4.0/Redhat
8.0, but there is no TWAIN driver.  I would like to try getting
TWAIN-SANE working in this evironment after I get scanimage working with
my HP 7450C, and get the ADF working.
