Since your issues seem to be timing related, I don't think anymore your problem
relates to the infinite loop I was talking about.

No. there should be more. This is only the flashing of the programming led (for
the standard avrftdi configuration).

As I said, -b 1000000 is too fast. The additional output on the terminal slows
the program down. Try -b 10000.
Ha! By browsing through the source, I think I found the source of your problem:
Someone committed a faulty flush-routine, which cleans buffers instead of
flushing them ("ftdi_usb_purge_buffers()"). If you set your programming speed
too high, data in transfer buffers will be deleted by this call (instead of
being pushed to the AVR). This is the reason why -vvvv helps - it slows the
program flow down, because the program has to do terminal I/O. You can choose a
lower frequency (10kHz should be fine). At worst you have to keep -vvvv on :(
I have the fix for this ready too. I will submit it in the next week or so.
Best regards,
Hannes
