Sure, the driver has been in the kernel for more than ten years but there are continual additions to the list vid:pid identifiers that cause the driver module to be loaded. If you look at the patch at the bottom of the URL I cited:

+ * Bayer Ascensia Contour blood glucose meter USB-converter cable.
+ * http://winglucofacts.com/cables/
+ */
+#define BAYER_VID                      0x1A79
+#define BAYER_CONTOUR_CABLE_PID        0x6001
+
+/*

And /that/ went into 2.6.30- hardly ten years old.
