    Derrel,

    You really should have searched the list before posting, since I am not
    only compiled sane-{backends,frontends} and xsane on RH 7.0 but made rpms
    and srpms available. Please see

    http://www.kahtep.com/RPMS/i386
    http://www.kahtep.com/SRPMS

    for some reason sane 1.0.4 compiled without any problems (could be that
    RPM itself takes care of things you reported), patches for xsane have been
    posted earlier by the maintainer and myself.

    Eugene.
