Can't do it.  devel/libusb is broken.  Been there tried that: Didn't
work.

I do know that it has *NEVER* found the device when I don't have
uscanner loaded, even when ugen was loaded...

: Actually that is another question:
: 
: Should we remove ID's from uscanner.c which will work fine attaching through 
: the libusb backend ?

Unlikely, given my experience that it appears to be required...

Anyway, it is going to be at least a week before I can do anything on
this again because the scanner is at home right now, and I'm in the
airport waiting for my flight to AsiaBSDCon 2009...
