What about a device which *is* intended to be used by sio, but *sometimes*
you want to bit-bang it instead?
In my case, I use the FT232R chips as usb-to-serial ports for my MCUs,
but to *program* the MCU, I have to fiddle with the cbus pins too.
For that task, I need to load libftdi. For normal communications I
just use /dev/ttyUSB* via sio.
