So the problem is only to find out why the usb.agent script doesn't
handle it.  I have my guess below ... but you can debug such things
yourself pretty easily.

You can snapshot the environment variables given to the hotplug
script, or an agent, by adding a line line "env > /tmp/variables"
to the script.  Then turn those into a script that just assigns and
exports (!) the variables listed up at the front ... use it to call
"sh -x usb.agent" (or "pci.agent" or whatever) to see exactly
what it's doing.  With that kind of debug output, it's easy to find
and fix problems.

Likely you're hitting a problem in the range handling.  Why don't you
just add an entry for product 07c4/a006 to /etc/hotplug/usb.handmap
that only lists product and version?  (And if the current version of the
script, in CVS, needs a patch ... please submit it!)
