I'd say you're right...
I'd say you're right because I just learned that USB 2.0 requires the ehci 
device driver, and my kernel doesn't have that driver.  I've been using 
the ohci driver all this time.  I'm buiding a new kernel now, and assuming 
the self-proclaimed "buggy" ehci driver works for me, I bet this will 
work.
If ehci were included in the GENERIC makefile, even commented out, I'd 
have caught this much sooner.

Thank you for making me think in the right direction.  :)
