Thanks Erik!  I'm still planning to integrate your V2 support into the
existing stk500.c files assuming that can be done cleanly, then
rewrite the initialize routine to attempt to detect what protocol
version is installed and set the function pointers appropriately.

One thing that has been holding me back is that I didn't want to
tamper with my existing STK500 because I use it daily for production
work.  So I ordered a second STK500 that I could update the firmware
on it without having to frequently reflash it back to 1.x to get real
work done.

Once that arrives, I'm hoping to spend some time integrating your
patches in a week or two.

We really appreciate your work on this!

Thanks,
-Brian
