sane-desc does not compile on OS/2

The problems are:

1.
#ifndef HAVE_STRCASECMP
  /* OS/2 needs this */
# define strcasecmp(a, b) stricmp(a, b)
#endif

is now missing in config.h

can you add
AC_DEFINE(strcasecmp,stricmp,[Define for OS/2 only])
to configure.in?

2.
OS/2 has no libgen.h
If I remove this include sane-desc compiles
but it does not link. I get

sane-desc.o: Undefined symbol _basename referenced from text segment

I assume that's because of to libgen.h

What does basename do?
