It is not too old, I managed to compile ok, in the end...

The problem with that error is that it was trying to make a test program
  linking to /usr/lib/libftd2xx.so and it was not there.

THE SUGGESYED IMPROVEMENT is: change the message to something like:
"configure: error: You appear to be missing /usr/lib/libftd2xx.so"
This alone would have saved hours of trial, error and googling.

Later, when running OpenOCD, it uses /usr/lib/libftd2xx.so.0, but the
message is clear and with a new symlink it run imediately.

So, the OTHER PROBLEM is that 2 different files are used at 2 different
moments, this is probably a small bug.
