What kind of module interface do you envision that would avoid the 
problems which we currently have with the FTD2XX library?

The drivers would have to run in a separate process space, which means

Note: Linux kernel modules need to be GPL, too - the only way to have 
non-GPL drivers in Linux is to have userspace drivers, which are quite 
limited in capabilities.
