Wow, this is strange, the programmer is clearly defined with different
VID:PID than avrdude expects :-(

Maybe try full call:

avrdude -c diamex-avr-usb -P usb:/dev/cuaU0 -p t85 -vvv -t

or

avrdude -c stk500v2 -P usb:/dev/cuaU0 -p t85 -vvv -t

or

avrdude -c avrispmkII -P usb:/dev/cuaU0 -p t85 -vvv -t


If that does not work I am out of ideas, sorry, maybe opening an Issue
on the project github repo could help?

Are you sure that diamex-avr-usb is not defined anywhere else (for
instance in /usr/local/etc/avrdude.conf)? We are missing some small
important detail here :-P

What I did at some point was building avrdude port WITH_DEBUG=1 flag
to make, then it is possible to debug it, setting breakpoint at
`usbdev_open` helped me understand -P handling.. maybe that would also
help finding the issue here :-)
