Yesterday I upgraded to sane 1.0.12 and xsane 0.92.  Experienced seg 
faults when invoking xsane. I commented out "epson" in dll.conf and 
added "epkowa". This forced sane to use the Epson Kowa backend 
libsane-epkowa. Seg faults ceased. The Epson Kowa backend to sane works 
great. You might try and see if they will allow it to be distributed 
with sane. It is GPL or an approved variant  I believe.

Running RH 8.0 with Kernal 2.4.18-17.8.0

and gcc 3.2.2 to compile all source (sane, xsane and Epson Kowa source).
