apple scanner backend hangs when using Umax sane-0.74

I installed sane-0.74 with dll.conf containing all of the available
scanners, as it is installed fresh from compilation. My only scanner
is a Umax 1200S. When I run xscanimage with no arguments, xscanimage
hangs. If "apple" is commented out in dll.conf, the select device
window pops up, as expected. In previous versions of sane, it was
safe to leave dll.conf unchanged. I suspect an unmodified dll.conf
should continue to work. I don't know whether to blame Umax and apple
for this problem.

By the way, the problem exists with and without the sane-umax-0.74b
patch.
