Oh, wait. (Grasping at a straw...) Do you need pkg usb-modeswitch? There are some USB NADs (Network Access Device) for which udev uses usb-modeswitch to switch from the default mode that presents the Windows drivers in a filesystem to a different mode (such as, on a cellular modem, that allows one to use it somewhat like a modem). Windows handles the switch automatically, but Linux needs usb-modeswitch and udev.
