I haven't seen it on any Saabs, but it happened to a Dodge I owned a long time ago, and to a friend's Chevy truck.
If the battery mounts (not sure the correct word here) are not put on the battery terminals perfectly, a small amount of corrosion may develop between the mounts and the terminals if the car sits long enough, just enough to break an electrical connection between the terminals and the mounts, such that the car won't start. The solution is to undo the battery mounts, clean the terminals and the mounts, and then put them back on very well.
