This is a really good idea!

That's fine, yes.  (Please avoid putting unrelated changes into a
patch though.  I've rather fixed the small typo separately.)

Two minor remarks:

. Better use 2013 as the copyright year for new files ;), and there's
  no need to attribute new files (like the header file) to Brian Dean
  rather than yourself (or any actual contributors).

. I'd prefer to reverse the autoconf logic for the enable option, so
  it is disabled by default.  The feature is only useful for a small
  subset of AVRDUDE users anyway, and all those who are candidate
  users of it are likely to compile their own version from sources
  anyway, so they can manually enable it without problems.

  If you don't want this for some reason, add more autoconf hacks to
  detect whether the environment is actually linuxgpio-ready.  As it
  is now, the feature would be enabled by default, thus breaking
  compilation for non-Linux systems, and adding unusable bloat into
  the resulting binary even for most normal PC-Linux users.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
