In the spirit of adventure you may care to try the following:

1. Unpack the tarball and configure for the bare minumum of backends, eg:

BACKENDS="niash dll" ./configure

2. Edit the backends Makefile (eg: sane-backends/backend/Makefile) and
remove -lpthreads from the BACKENDLIBS line

3. make, install and see if it works

So long as your backend does not actually use the pthreads library then 
you might find this suffices.

If so please report back as the final code freeze for the next release is 
due this weekend.

cheers,
Jon
