I go to Freddie's site and see that the latest binary for windows is 

OpenOCD 0.8.0
commit date: 27.04.2014 10:28:21
MD5: 1d7ab70dbc0fe15c7bbc8e6cb7504c8c

So 10 months out of date.  If there are fixes in the main branch or
patches 
that are needed to make things work then I'd be pretty much stuck. Which 
as a user of a Kinetis uP, I believe to be the case.

I di actually try recently to cross compile openOCD, but the version of
Ubuntu
on my virtual machine is old. The never versions are very painful to use 
because of Unity 3D.

That says not so nice things about the codebase and build system.
