Hi,
I've made an updated packaging of libusb-win32 available on
http://brl.thefreecat.org/libusb-win32/
More precisely,
http://brl.thefreecat.org/libusb-win32/libusb-win32-0.1.10.1-2-src.tar.bz2
http://brl.thefreecat.org/libusb-win32/libusb-win32-0.1.10.1-2.tar.bz2

Ok

I've put them in /usr/lib/libusb

It is how libusb-win32 is usually installed. But by patching sources a
little bit, drivers and services can be run from cygwin's
/usr/lib/libusb

I've added in the README file a paragraph that points to libusb's
documentation (since libusb-win32 is stricly API-compatible with
libusb).
