hoses nearby first. Along with the heater hoses (not in the area of the water pump, and the main upper and lower hoses (not by the waterpump either) there are the tank hoses and a little U shaped hose adjacent to the water pump and a hose beneath the rear of the head towards the serp belt side of the engine.
If you have 90-100k, you should be replacing ALL of these hoses or you could be in for a long walk home. One of the two small, inexpensive, pain in the a-- hoses in the vicinity of the pump could well be the problem. I have never had much luck with the relatively short lifespan of the Saab water pumps. Mine lasted about 50 k each.
Oh yeah, change and flush coolant every two years. Cheap insurance.
