1.0.4 is an old version. However, I don't think anything has been
changed in the tamarack code since then. The Tamarack backend is
unmaintained.

Which kernel version? With newer kernels it's not necessary to
recompile, buffer size can be changed at runtime. Check the man page
"sane-scsi": http://www.mostang.com/sane/man/sane-scsi.5.html .
