Well, sort of. I've started a backend for it:
  http://www.zago.net/sane/gl646/gl646.c
  http://www.zago.net/sane/gl646/gl646.h

It does a couple checks and initializes the scanner. I expect to fill the blanks 
by looking at the doc and the logs. Right now, it looks like the driver gives 
the scan parameters by writing to the scanner DRAM. The format still looks like 
a pile of junk data, but eventually we'll get there.

If you're interrested, hp2300_scanner_init() correspond to the urbs 5 to 24 when 
one plugs the scanner.

Frank.
