Details:

avrdude man page, section 'Programmers accepting extended parameters':
buspirate
[...]
speed=<0..7>    BusPirate to AVR SPI speed:
etc.

I wondered why running avrdude with '-x speed=2' had no effect and checked the
source code. In buspirate.c, avrdude actually searches for the parameter
'spifreq=%d'.
The best solution (imho) would be to update the man page.
