I've tried with just './configure' and
./configure --includedir=/usr/local/include
./configure --includedir=/usr/local/include --libdir=/usr/local/lib

but all bombs out with this:
checking for usb_open in -lusb... no
checking for usb_get_driver_np... no
configure: error: Can't find libusb. On ubuntu, try sudo apt-get install libusb-dev

libusb in ports is currently at version 0.1.12_4, I don't know if that
affects anything, but the libdlo page says  "libusb (0.13)".
