I do not think so, although it might be. But since I can not reproduce the
problem here and the OT (Peter) sees it only on one maschine we may
wait for other reports to get more information. "Exact timing" is more
importent with PPIs with serial-port-protocol-interfaces the delay loop
is only used in the context of the AVR-ISP/SPI programming.

Peter: You may try the fuse-programming-procedure with the 0.4
Version of avrdude-w32 avail. on www.siwawi.arubi.uni-kl.de/avr_projects
