Actaully, the USB code wa in NetBSD, first.  It was ported to FreeBSD, and the
changes to port it were subsequently committed to the NetBSD tree, presumably
to make it easier to diff the code.

Unfortunately, it is now hard to follow, because of all the macros that
encapsulate everything.  I suppose that is the price we have to pay for
cooperating with them.  Too bad they had to reinvent the wheel, instead
of just adopting NetBSD's autoconfiguration system.
