I've seen xscanimage get into a busy loop a couple of times on my machine.<br>
Does anyone know about this, or shall I keep tracking it?<br>
<p>
The loop seems to consist of a write(1, "my command line or something"), a<br>
getpid(), and a read(0)=0.<br>
<p>
This is with sane-1.00 and gimp 1.1.2 -- I'm using xscanimage as a<br>
plug-in.<br>
