And, we've got a winner!

Any idea if there are plans to fix this in the kernel itself?  I
looked and found this:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=usb/86438
but it appears to still be open...

Anyway, many thanks to everybody who provided suggestions and help
here!  Most especiall, thank you to Ian for finding this solution!
