Strange.  Not many things did change in configure.ac lately:

The first part is basically a copy&paste from the already
existing libusb-1.0 check, just using a different library
name, and the check for libftdi is pretty straightforward.

I just uploaded an avrdude-5.10svn.tar.gz to savannah, could
you please test that one?  If the configure script there is
working, something must be wrong with your autotools, if it
fails the same way, I'll inspect the script again.
