BRLTTY has a native USB implementation on Linux (and some BSDs).
For all platforms where there is no internal (native) implementation for USB
access we use libusb.

In theory, one could wirte a native USB implementation for BRLTTY on Windows
based on the code that libusb already implements to get rid
of the external dependency.  In reality, its questionable if such an effort
will increase the quality and stability of the USB backend on Windows in the
long run.  Its probably better to bundle libusb-win32 with the
win32 brltty distribution (and installer) if we really have too many
versioning/compatibility problems.
