You're probably not getting what you expected.  You probably menat:

% catch {exec scanimage} foo

Note: curly braces vs. square brackets.

If you're brave and persistent, you could figure out how to set up the

outside the nsd.  This way, if the command terminates the process, it'll
simply terminate the proxy and not the main nsd.
