Details:

I compiled AVRDUDE for an NSLU2 running SLUGOS/BE, and it compiled fine. 
However, it reported that the parallel port is not available on this device,
which is a true statement. No problem there, because I wasn't planning to use
the parallel port to download code, just the serial port (stk500v1).

When I tried to download a hex file to my device (ATMEL 368) from the NSLU2,
it reported a strange error message and aborted. I'm sorry, but I didn't write
down the error message and now that it's working, I don't want to take a
chance on breaking it. All I know is that the message had nothing to do with
parallel ports.  I modified ac_cfg.h to trick it into thinking I had a
parallel port and recompiled, and now it works great.  This is a fantastic
tool!
