What about 64-bit Windows?  Is a 64-bit driver available somewhere?

Well, almost:

1) <usb.h> has a #include <windows.h>.  While that's certainly necessary 
inside of libusb, it's not required for the public interface and 
actually messes up some things which #include <usb.h>.  Could you please 
move that #include <windows.h> into an internal header, or into the 
sources, so as not to expose it in the public interface?

2) Nowadays libusb provides a pkg-config file:
