Hello Andrew,

Thanks for your kind feedback and all the information you gave me.

Last night after coming home I had a quick look into
/usr/src/sys/dev/usb/uftdi.c and the CVS Id lines say that
the source is based on $NetBSD: uftdi.c,v 1.13 2002/09/23
and the FreeBSD rev is 1.18.2.1 2005/01/30; I will follow
your suggestions and dig into this from scratch; maybe you
could send me over your hacked one and your original to have
this as some kind of reference; thanks in advance.

	Matthias
