Follow-up Comment #3:
Is this really still relevant, given that parallel-port computers are no
longer really available?
Yes, as InpOut32.dll, available as InpOutX64.dll for a 64-bit version
of avrdude, enables redirection of bit-banging to any hardware, not
only the parallel port but also USB-ParallelPrinter converters,
without installing a global exception handler (that can do the same
job but much slower). InpOut32 is more flexible than using giveio.sys
but is a bit slower.
Moreover, true parallel ports are IMHO still available on docking
stations and industrial PCs.

Don't know how.
