Yes, just remove all the drivers you don't want to compile in
backend/Makefile.in (PRELOADABLE_BACKENDS). After that, run configure.

I don't think we should do this. The first thing is too complicated
(add an option for each backend). And I'm sure we will get questions
from people that have forgotten to compile a necessary backend on
sane-devel.

About 2-3 per release. It's complicated enough to check a new backend
and add all the necessary entries. I don't want to add one more item
that may be forgotten.
