MGE is an UPS manufacturer. As I found their ID in
src/drivers/usb/usb_common.h as well as multiple references to MGE
elsewhere in the code, I thought it was more or less supported. Also, I
seemed to recall APC and MGE are somewhat linked together, but I'm not
sure so I'll need to check that.
Maybe apcupsd is just not the proper tool for my UPS. I just found out
about NUT (http://www.networkupstools.org/) which might be a better fit.

Thanks for the quick answer,
Xavier
