apcupsd & usb2

apcupsd no longer works now that i switched to usb2.  the
usb2_input_hid module keeps attaching to it.  before, with the old usb
stack, my ups would attach as ugen0, my dmesg shows it attaching as
uhid0 now and apcupsd cannot find it.  if i unload the usb2_input_hid
module, my ups disappears.  because something is mentioned in the post
install text for apcupsd, i believe that the usb2_hid_module should
not be attaching to the ups.  any help would be appreciated.

[old stack]
ugen0: <American Power Conversion Back-UPS XS  900 FW:830.E6 .D USB
FW:E6, class 0/0, rev 1.10/1.06, addr 2> on uhub5

[usb2]
uhid0: <American Power Conversion Back-UPS XS  900 FW:830.E6 .D USB
FW:E6, class 0/0, rev 1.10/1.06, addr 2> on usbus5
Symlink: uhid0 -> usb5.2.0.16

[error message]

thanks for all your hard work on the new usb stack,
