The compat wrapper should work.
One of the major potential advantage of libusb 1.0 to libftdi
is the support of asynchronous I/O.
Example: the author of libnifalcon is saying that libftdi is
slower than libusb 1.0.

The major disadvantage of libusb 1.0 is that it is only supported
under Linux and Mac OS X right and it is not compatible with
libusb 0.1 and libusb-win32 0.1.
Take note that libusb-win32 0.1 does support asynchronous I/O.
