	Not that I know of, so you're exploring uncharted territory.

	First of all, take a look at the output of 'configure' to make
sure that it does think that you have USB. You can also look at "config.h"
after it's been generated; make sure it has the line
	#define WITH_USB 1

	Secondly, the PDA doesn't exist as a USB device until you start
HotSync. So if you have a 'listen serial {}' block in your .coldsyncrc,
the device won't be found. You need to use 'listen usb {}'.
	If you run
	coldsync -dsync:5 -dmisc:5 -dio:5
that should produce useful debugging output.
