Adding libusb path to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH should be enough. I'm using this syntax daily on OS X without any issue.
If libusb(x) has been installed with Homebrew: export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/opt/libusb/lib" $> ls -l /usr/local/opt/libusb/lib/ total 464 -r--r--r-- 1 eblot admin 93280 28 Oct 23:57 libusb-1.0.0.dylib -r--r--r-- 1 eblot admin 139144 19 Oct 18:46 libusb-1.0.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 eblot admin 18 19 Oct 18:46 libusb-1.0.dylib -> libusb-1.0.0.dylib drwxr-xr-x 3 eblot admin 102 28 Oct 23:57 pkgconfig There is no such thing as ld.so.conf on OS X.
