Hi Edgar,

I was just looking at the avrdude source code, and it seems like their check 
for libhid is only for the Windows hid.lib (with "HidD_" prefix on the symbols):

http://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/trunk/avrdude/configure.ac?revision=1350&root=avrdude&view=markup

You may want to check and see if your version is actually linking against the 
other libhid (with "hid_" symbol prefixes), and if not, let the pkgsrc people 
know.
