Can you provide some more lines of backtrace so we can see what
sane-net is trying to achieve here? What's in line 345? Is this a
modified sanei_wire.c? I'm asking because flush() starts in line 390
in the code I have. Also I don't understand #2 -> #1 -> #0 , because I
don't see where write () would be involved in flush ().

Just a quick guess: Some sort of race between the final sane_cancel
and sane_read which leads to closing the data connection before
sane_read has finished? I don't know if something like that is possible.
Does this also happen if you use saned in debug mode and are there any
errors/warnings from saned or the plustek backend (with
SANE_DEBUG_PLUSTEK=255)?
