Not really complex but would take some time because the abovementioned
repository based on post-1.0.18 SANE backends. As well as merging
Michael's work. As far as I know further porting of the backends
should be straightforward (at least for USB based ones). What makes
the troubles is the fork() absense. One possibility to check all the
backends to be thread safe and use threads instead. Then even saned
could be ported.

I would make the branch in the main repository, commit all changes
there, verify the result and then finally merge it with HEAD.

Any thougths?
