Any Fedora that would run SANE/SSHD on an ancient 486sx with 8MB RAM?

Short answer: No.

Longer answer: Early Fedoras had memory demands in the order of 64MB RAM 
(I did run Fedora on i586's with 64MB RAM), current ones are in the 
 >512MB RAM range. Apart of this, an i486sx would be insufficient for 
Fedora (Old ones required an i586, newer one at least i686).
