That's untrue - I dropped the issue because I thought thompsa@ was working on it, but he didn't touch the userland parts. I have a 3,000-line diff for libusb20 which no longer applies due to intervening changes. Looking at the updated code, I'm still concerned about the widespread use of obufscated pointer arithmetic - the LIBUSB20_ADD_BYTES macro, for instance, is even worse now than when I last looked at libusb20.
