Cant get gimp to use xsane with FreeBSD 10.-RELRASE

[Mike Clarke]

I've just upgraded from 9,1-RELEASE to 10.0-RELEASE

After deleting and reinstalling all packages I can't get gimp to use 
the xsane dialog. The option to use xsane doesn;t appear in the File - 
Create menu

The output from gimp --verbose shows the following problem:

Parsing '/home/mike/.gimp-2.8/pluginrc'
Querying plug-in: '/home/mike/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins/xsane'
/home/mike/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins/xsane: GIMP support missing
Terminating plug-in: '/home/mike/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins/xsane'
Writing '/home/mike/.gimp-2.8/pluginrc'

But xsane was built with gimp support

curlew:/home/mike% pkg query "%n %Ok %Ov" xsane gimp-app
xsane DOCS on
xsane GIMP on
xsane NLS on
gimp-app AA on
gimp-app DBUS on
gimp-app GHOSTSCRIPT off
gimp-app GVFS off
gimp-app HELPBROWSER on
gimp-app JASPER off
gimp-app LIBEXIF on
gimp-app LIBMNG on
gimp-app LIBRSVG2 on
gimp-app POPPLER on
gimp-app SIMD on
gimp-app WMF on

curlew:/home/mike% pkg info gimp-app xsane
gimp-app-2.8.10_3,1
Xsane-0.999_1

And I have the symbolic link in my plug-ins subdirectory.

curlew:/home/mike% ls -l ~/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins/
total 1
lrwxr-xr-x  1 mike  mike  20 18 Aug 15:17 xsane@ -> 
/usr/local/bin/xsane

And the target exists

curlew:/home/mike% ls -l /usr/local/bin/xsane
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  602240 18 Aug 20:06 /usr/local/bin/xsane*

I've tried this using packages and then by building gimp-app and xsane 
from ports with the same result each time.

I had no problems on 9.0RELEASE with the same package versions and 
build options so I'm wondering if we have an issue specific to 
10.RELEASE here.

curlew:/home/mike% uname -a
FreeBSD curlew.lan 10.0-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE-p7 #0: Tue Jul  
8 06:37:44 UTC 2014     root at amd64-
