Ah, that's a bit confusing.

There is a --disable-canusb, I think, so I'll try building libpcap
with that option, which ought to eliminate needing to link with -lusb.
I wonder if canusb sniffing is sufficiently rare, and forcing people
to have libusb-dev around is sufficiently annoying that we should
turn that off by default.
