Hey.  Don't paint ME *that* dumb... ;)

It was indeed the case here.  I never tried those things on my
home machine before, and decided to experiment, but I forgot
that it has /proc/bus/usb mounted.  And for comparison I used
another machine which does NOT have that filesystem mounted.
How.. dum^Wodd... ;)

Please excuse me for the noise.
