It's a well-known problem that it can sometimes happen to destroy the
ID bytes in serial programming.  Atmel acknowledges this in appnote
910, page 5:

``Table 5 indicates that the Device Code will sometimes read as $FF.
If this happens, the part Device Code has not been programmed into the
device.  This does not indicate an error, but the part has to be
manually identified in the programmer.''

(Is it even possible now in UISP to manually define the part?  Last
time i looked it wasn't.)

I've also seen it to respond with 3 * $00 on one part.  In all cases
however, the device still worked.

Maybe you've killed it somehow else?
