ft2232 is a driver in OpenOCD. It can use either libftdi (and libusb) or 
ftd2xx.

The general problem is that ft2232 is sort-of deprecated as there's a 
new faster and cleaner driver called ftdi, which uses libusb-1.0 (there 
are config scripts in interface/ftdi/...), and I guess noone cares for 
closed-source ftd2xx, as you cannot publish such binary anywhere due to 
GPL restrictions.

That's why it's better to use --enable-ft2232_libftdi (and you have to 
have libftdi and libusb) and/or --enable-ftdi.

4\/3!!
