Argh, sorry, I misread your email and went off on one.
You will indeed need to "edit iowarrior.ko". I.e. change the C source
code to include the new pIDs, recompile, test, get patches merged into
the mainline kernel etc :).
It's also possible to test new devices with an old driver, i.e. before
you modify it. Possible instructions: http://www.ha19.no/usb/
