I installed libsane-extras 1.0.16.5 to no avail. I still get the same
behaviour.

According to the changelog the previous modification affecting the
epkowa backend was in 1.0.16.3. But 1.0.16.{0,1,2} are not available on
snapshot.debian.net and 1.0.15.9 requires to downgrade other packages
(I don't know how many packages should be downgraded yet).

Eh ! Wait ! 

I haven't used the card reader for a long time and didn't notice until
now that it shows a similar behaviour !

When I try to copy a file from the card, cp gets some kB, hangs, get
some more kB, hangs for many minutes and finally concludes that there's
a I/O error (the card can't be blamed for this since the file is
readable in another card reader).

There's one difference with the scanner though. When I cp a picture from
a cf card, the first kB received are correct data and not the garbage I
get when scanning with xsane.

So may be the problem doesn't lie in libsane-extras ?
