I've had the same problems too.

Isn't it somehow fundamentally wrong to require kernel headers for sane?
Sane is a user-space package not kernel-space.

I remember seeing the compilation problem only with the epson backend,
but surely other backends must handle byte-order issues. Can't we just
fix the epson backend instead of requiring kernel headers for everyone?
