Details:

device: xmega16d4
programmer: jtagice mkII or avrisp mkII
host: CentOS 6.6 x86_64
avrdude version: 6.1 (locally built)

I am unable to verify the device signature and write the boot section of an
xmega16d4 with an ELF file.

I can successfully write and verify fuse1, fuse2, fuse4, fuse5, and lock using
this same file.

Note that this same file works when used to program the bootloader and fuses
of an xmega16d4 using AVR Studio version 4.19 using the ELF Production File
feature.
