I think I started with pkgsrc but jumped to their cvs version when
things didn't work right.

Nathan's post did remind me that I had to put a two-line hack into the
usb-uhid driver to tell uhid to keep its grubby fingers off of the
UPS.  I don't think any of the bsd's I submitted that patch to bought
off on it.  It might be good to put this into the kernel with a "this
is a really rude hack and needs to by fixed" type note.  (More correct
code would tried harder to see if the device was a UPS instead of
jumping to conclusions from the vendor name.  Unfortunately the fact
that it is a ups didn't seem to be available at probe time.)
