If the reader is listed at "http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid.html" then 
it will be supported (it might need a small change in one of the driver 
description files of Libchipcard).

If it isn't listed there and there is no driver from the manufacturer then the 
reader isn't supported on Linux, hence Libchipcard can't support it in such a 
case, either.
