There is no general problem with it. You should just think about a
reasonable interface layer like the sanei_* files, that can be customized
for the various SANE target platforms. Many will use termios, while others
might need different ways to access the port. Thus it would be good to
abstract the control commands and communication in an extra layer that can
be #ifdefed to suit the host OS.
