The affected lines from saned.c - unfortunately I'm not very used to 
C-programming, so that I cannot read that much out of them:


[...]
  switch (remote_address.ss_family)
    {
      case AF_INET:
        if (IN_LOOPBACK (ntohl (sin->sin_addr.s_addr)))
          {
            DBG (DBG_MSG,
                 "check_host: remote host is IN_LOOPBACK: access 
granted\n");
            return SANE_STATUS_GOOD;
          }
        break;
[...]

remote_address is defined somewhere around line 195 in saned.c:
[...]
#ifdef SANED_USES_AF_INDEP
static struct sockaddr_storage remote_address;
static int remote_address_len;
#else
static struct in_addr remote_address;
#endif /* SANED_USES_AF_INDEP */
[...]

Sorry, 've forgotten to mention it: Linux with Kernel 2.4.17
