Well, I am using a 4.0-current kernel immediately prior to the newbus
merge. However the actual config dates back to a 3.0-current around
last October or so. I guess I may be using an outdated driver. My other
SCSI devices (disks) are definitely using CAM though, so I don't know.
The date in the file is:

Yes it does, but nothing appears to use it.

Yep - my /usr/local/lib/sane has .so and .so.1 files in it (built from
the port).

Yeah - this one was buried deep somewhere. It specifies the driver followed
by the device.
