I stuck an RC script I'm now using into CVS at SourceForge,
and append a version.  Please feel free to improve on it!

    rc.usb start ... starts whatever still needs it,
        modprobes (usbcore and) hcds, starts usbd
    rc.usb stop ... undoes all it can, tries rmmod usbcore
    rc.usb status ... shows USB subsystem status

It should work with fully and partially modular configurations.
On RedHat 6.2, I invoke it right after "depmod -a" in rc.sysinit
(and without modifying fstab or modules.conf) and at various
other times.

What sort of solutions are other folk using for USB startup
and so on?  Or on USB-only hardware?  I know about making the
/etc/fstab entry and /etc/modules.conf aliases to drive it,
but that won't work with usbd in many semi-modular configs.
