actually there is no dependency on the Linux BT stack and for accessing
the USB functions it uses libusb. However for switching the Logitech
Bluetooth hub it uses some hiddev magic which is Linux specific. So if
you rib out the Logitech stuff there should be no problem in running
hid2hci under any operating system that has support for libusb.
