I don't rightly know to your first query, sorry.

As to libusb:
-CURRENT does not need (actually needs to not have)
devel/libusb since its functionality(?) is part of the base system
now (post feb09).
What I did:
pkg_delete -f libusb
pkgdb -F (this detected the dependancies as obsolete perfectly)
cd /usr/src && make delete-old && make delete-old-libs
(caue canem!  ^^stuff might break after this^^.  Badly)
rebuild everything that used to depend on libusb (I guess
running pkg_info -R /var/db/pkg/libusb\* > fruitbatexpress.txt
would be prudent prior to pkg_delete . . . )

NB: this is not a tutorial and is probably missing some stuff.
Please be careful, and always use protection.  Always.
