Once upon a time, there was a usbd(8) in NetBSD. The FreeBSD manpage
reads :

[...]
HISTORY
     The usbd utility appeared in NetBSD 1.4.

AUTHORS
     The usbd driver was written by Lennart Augustsson <augustss@carlstedt.se>
     for the NetBSD project.  The event queue handling in usbd was added by
     Nick Hibma <n_hibma@FreeBSD.org>.

If you check in cvsweb[1], it was deleted 7 years ago, the commit
message[2] is not really clear.

regards,

Arnaud
