Array 7 is quite old now, and some of the bugs you mention are known to be

Were you asked which modes to use?  If the probe, fails, the system asks you
which video mode to use, and selects sync ranges based on that.

Please report a bug, package: udev.  Include in the report what you see in
/sys/class/scsi_generic/sg<X>/device/type for your scanner.
