In case it's useful for anyone else, I have ported code for the
MLX90621 (4x16 pixel remote IR temperature sensor) from the RPi (talks
directly to the BCM hardware) to use standard Linux I2C devices (eg:
/dev/i2c1) so it works on the 'Bone and other boards with standard
Linux I2C support.

Tested on a BBB using I2C2 (/dev/i2c1, the cape EEPROM I2C bus), 5.6K
pull-up resistors, and a diode-connected transistor to drop the 3.3V
rail to the 2.6V preferred by the MLX.

Code is on github:
