Problems with AIX/HP

I am currently trying to install sane-0.70 on a IBM RS/6000, model 250.
I got the gsc-package and installed it as needed and it seems to work:
When I try: "tstinq /dev/scanner" , I get
/dev/scanner:HP C5110A 3701|Device Type 3
This seems to indicate that everything is right so far (?).

However, if I try to use scanimage, I get the following:

Only scanimage:
---------------
scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument

scanimage -d hp:/dev/scanner, SANE_DEBUG_DLL=128, SANE_DEBUG_HP=128, SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_SCSI=128

My device(s) in /dev/ are configured as follows:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 4 Feb 10 20:01 /dev/scanner -> gsc0
crwxrwxrwx 1 root system 34, 0 Feb 10 17:01 /dev/gsc0

"lsdev -C" reports:

[...]
gsc0 Available 04-B0-00-2,0 Feral Software Generic SCSI Release 1.0

I compiled sane with CC=cc and ./configure --disable-shared.

Does anybody have an idea, what could be wrong ?
Sorry, if I sent this mail to the wrong place, but I thought this could be
the right place...

Thanks,
Frank
