Yeah, I've been trying to find the time to rebase it against libusbx, especially as some people [1] have been using it and adding their own fixes. Of course the new hotplug proposal has now reshuffled the cards. The bulk of the code came for Nokia, with the core of the patch (Linux + OS-X) at [2] and the initial Windows counterpart at [3]. >> There are two ways to design standard libraries.

That's not to say that what you first release will earn you a lot of accolades, but it's a lot easier to comment on the flaws and merits of a proposal, and whether a better design might exist, once you have something concrete that can be used to generate feedback.
