Short version: Neither work.

Long Version:

The one built with 2.95 does not print the ACK0 messages, it still gives the
flash errors though. I even tried using it to load itself and got a very
similar error situation (it only has to erase one sector which appears to
work but it then fails on the write).

Output for both versions in the attached file.
