That's really difficult for the libusbx community to answer.

I would suggest to support both a gpsd style program for those users
who like to use such a thing, and to also support directly opening
the serial port created by the kernel driver for the GPS.

If you want to autodetect the serial port please feel free to reuse
or just take inspiration from http://stuge.se/find430.sh

You will need to adjust the ids of course, and the autodetection will
look different in a C program, but the same principle will work fine
even on rather old Linux systems.
