I'd recommend avoiding the libusbx tarball which has been linked from there and instead getting the http://git.libusb.org/libusb.git code.

It's complicated, but yes libusb.git code hasn't changed in about a year. I expect it to work reliably, and indeed one or two bugs have been fixed since the 1.0.9 release. (Before you say it, no, I can not simply make a 1.0.10 release. As I wrote, it is complicated.
