Confusing as it may be to non-USB developers, how about using the USB spec terms "host" (for the PC) and "local host" (for the USB gadget/client/device/etc...)? I haven't seen those specific terms suggested yet after quickly searching through the archive.
For shorthand, you might use "h" and "lh" suffixes, i.e., "usbh" for host code, and "usblh" for local host code. Or something else if that seems too terse.
One well placed Readme file ought to make the distinction pretty clear to most end users, and USB developers shouldn't find it a problem at all.
