On Windows, you can't use ioctls.  There is no generic driver.  If
you're not going to use libusb, then you have to use WinUSB.

On Linux, there's a basic introduction to the usbfs ioctls here:
    http://tali.admingilde.org/linux-docbook/usb/ch07.html
    http://tali.admingilde.org/linux-docbook/usb/ch07s06.html

HOWEVER, don't start down this path unless you really can't use libusb
for some really good reason.  If you are not comfortable with ioctls,
this is not a good way to go.
