SUCCESS! SUCCESS! SUCCESS!!!!!!!

OK, here's what happened: since I'm a total n00b at USB, I was stuck
when megatec_usb couldn't find the device. Your advice of running with
USB_DEBUG did the trick.

The first time I ran the driver, I noticed it complained about the
permissions on /dev/usb*. I was concentrating on /dev/ugen*, while it
was actually /dev/usb0 that the UPS managed to attach. So, it was just a
matter of setting the permissions appropriately.

I can't thank people from NUT project/lists, and in particular you and
Henning enough, for the precious help, at last I can get this UPS to
work with OpenBSD.
