I don't know. Maybe a USB2serial adapter is your friend in that case, or use smth. like an Arduino which already has a usb2serial chip onboard (from FTDI).
If this is too slow for you, having a dedicated USB controller uC is a good next step, which requires some investigation when it comes to good non-Windows compatibility.

It's a free design, so you could play with it to make it DIP compatible.
..or design one from scratch, or buy one..
