I just tried it with -current (cvsupped 2003-05-31, 5.1-BETA).  Once the
kernel is compiled with `device ehci', the verbose boot messages include
these:

ehci0: <NEC uPD 720100 USB 2.0 controller> mem 0xfedfdc00-0xfedfdcff irq 11 at device 14.2 on pci0
ehci_pci_attach: companion usb0
ehci_pci_attach: companion usb1
usb2: EHCI version 1.0
usb2: companion controllers, 2 ports each: usb0,usb1
usb2: <NEC uPD 720100 USB 2.0 controller> on ehci0
usb2: USB revision 2.0
uhub2: NEC EHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1
uhub2: 3 ports with 3 removable, self powered

So it looks like it does indeed treat it as a USB 2.0 device.  However,
the stock GENERIC kernel doesn't have ehci included, and so it attaches
only the USB-1.0 ohci0 driver.

OK.
