I'd love to if I could. It's been a week, now, since I fixed the first
problem. My /usr/local/etc/sane.d/hp.conf file has but a single line in it:
"/dev/scg0c". My $LD_LIBRARY_PATH is
/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib/sane: \
/usr/openwin/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/local/lib/X11:/usr/lib
What made the difference for me was deleting all of the *.conf files in the
/usr/local/etc/sane.d directory and letting Sane re-create them. Then I
edited the hp.conf file. After that, I quit having the earlier problem and
began having the core dump.

I've also noticed, as I've run gdb, that there are *.conf files in the
backend directory. If you run scanimage out of that directory, it'll read
the local *.conf files instead of using the /usr/local/etc/sane.d versions.

You may have already tried or figured out all of the above, but my problem
was strictly with the hp.conf file. Once that was fixed, everything seemed to
go well. Of course, mixed with that were several re-compiles, extensions of
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and updates of my binutils.

I hope that's helped.

Chris
