gpsbabel usb problems on snow leopard?

I've got snow leopard installed on my MBP/intel and a macports 1.8.1  
fresh install. I installed gpsbabel but I get USB errors with it that  
I didn't have with my old macports tree:

gpsbabel -t -i garmin -f usb: -o gpx -F all.gpx
Bad cmdsend r -1 sz 12
usb_bulk_write failed. 'usb_bulk_write: An error occured during write  
(see messages above)'

My old macports tree was based on leopard though I did have similar  
errors if I tried to run a version of gpsbabel newer than 1.3.5. (I  
tried it every once in a while when a dependency was updated but then  
would just reactivate the old version.) My old tree still works but  
since it had a bunch of stuff I no longer use, I wanted to start over  
with a clean tree.

Anyone else having any luck with gpsbabel and snow leopard?

Thanks,

tjb
