Still, that doesn't make the OS itself support the parallel port in
any way, even if it's physically present.
AVRDUDE can only sit on top of some OS-provided API to access the
port. OK, except on Windows, where there's only a crock since the OS
doesn't have an API ... I wouldn't want to pick this as an "how it
should be really done" example though.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
