The sources that come with my distribution, i.e. version 1.0.32, have the 
different check in fetch_options:

/* create command line option only for settable options */
if (!SANE_OPTION_IS_SETTABLE (opt->cap) || opt->type == SANE_TYPE_GROUP)
  continue;

The condition on SANE_OPTION_IS_SETTABLE(opt->cap) has been removed in version 
1.1.1 and this causes the problem.

Are you going to change this in version 1.1.1 back to the condition in version 
1.0.32? Should I write a bug report about this? 

Thanks,
Karl
