I hook fopen() from a loader lib injected using LD_PRELOAD. Originally I
hooked strrchr(), but it turned out that some systems have strrchr() as
macros.

If you plan to add native support in PCB so one doesn't need to use such
hacks, I think the simplest way would be to acquire the HID names from a
file and/or command line arguments and just load them using dlopen() and
call an init function. The init function then can call back
hid_register_hid() and co.
