looks like update-usbids.sh was forgotten from EXTRA_DIST in
Makefile.am so the released tarball doesnt have the script ;(

having to manually run `sed` on the scripts/man pages is annoying when
moving the ids file ... any chance of converting those to normal
configure generated files ? or is there hard resistance to that ?

i see `usbmodules` has been punted. was there a reason for that ? i
find being able to run `usbmodules` pretty useful ... i wrote a script
for fun:
