Don't know the disease but I found the cures. first I wiped out
everything in /usr/local/share/gimp. I also wiped out the gimpish
files in my home directory. 2.2.12 still didn't want to play
nicely so I recompiled 2.3.9. The xsane problem may have been
related to cross-partition problems so I just copied it to the
plug-in directory instead of linking it. Now all I have to do is
correct the persistent problems with PostScript output. It still
creates offsets, horizontal and vertical, by default. This requires 
minor surgery on the source.
