I'd first try rebuilding the source rpm against your newer gimp libraries.
You'll need to install a few -devel packages first, then use rpmbuild to
rebuild them. So:
Install the gimp-devel libraries
rpmbuild --rebuild sane-x.x.x-src.rpm
This will/should create binary RPMs. Alas, there's no guarantee that the
package will build properly against the new libs, but I've had pretty good
success with most other packages.
