I thought that problem was fixed. I have some reports that 1.0.12
works, so this maybe is one more occurance of the "all MacOS X systems
are different from each other" syndrome.

It is defined multiple and that's ok (in libsane and liblib).

You could ask the other MacOS X guys and find out what's different on
your setup.

There have been some MacOS X changes in the current CVS code, but I
don't think they are related to your problem.
