char **argvec = malloc(); vprintf(fmt, argvec); va_end(argvec);
which of cource won't work on anything that does not pass its
arguments on the stack (like PPC). This patch adds a handcrafted
vprintf() lookalike damn_i386_centric_printf() that does TRT.
additional supported scanners, and new backends for Mustek USB scanners.
While at it, split out common "sane" definitions into a Makefile.common
for sane-frontents (and possibly others) to use.
- Add a missing dependency on libusb.
- Add a buildlink.mk file for use by other package Makefiles.
- Don't install sane.{dvi,ps} as they require teTeX to be installed to build
the documentation files.
