    Are you saying that whilst saving the PDF directly after scanning
    produces blank pages, but saving as an image, and then reimporting it
    doesn't?

Yes. Scan -> PDF does NOT work (intermittent), but Scan -> PNM ->
Import Image -> PDF DOES work (seems to be consistent).

I just realized that the --debug output I captured and posted earlier
was cut off, I guess because of forking that gscan2pdf does. I'll try
to just use copy/paste from a terminal window to capture all the output,
but right now I can't get the blank page error to happen.
