Probably the configure script doesn't detect GIMP properly and thus doesn't
build the "gimpified" version. Check the configure values, if all gimp-
related items are found. If not, fake them.

I suppose these are related. Could you cross-check that with scanimage ?

Urks. I heard of problem at res>=300 dpi.

Aha. Seems to be my problem ... Please turn on DEBUG_MUSTEK=255.

In my case this happens often, if the total number of scanned lines is exactly
1 more than the "natural" size we will get from the scanner. For my configuration
(MFS-12000SP, unpatched SCSI MAXLEN) a sure lockup is acquired by the
parameters --mode Color --resolution 111 -y 131. Could you test those ?
