Well, what do you know. I thought the problem was with the libsane that I
had (1.0.6) so I built a new debian package with 1.0.7. Still had the same
problem with xscanimage (which BTW, will never leave or stop, and won't
respond to kill -9 or kill -15 once it gets stuck).

Then I installed xsane which worked flawlessly! I suspect it would have
worked with 1.0.6 as well.

Anyways, you can add the Epson Perfection 1650 to the list of supported
scanners. Works great!

Thanks so much for Sane. 
Anywhere I could send a donation of some sorts to? I'd gladly do so.
