I have replaced all the _UDR references directly by UDR0, the same for
_UBRR, and it compiles fine now.

Now the Arduino Duemilanove can work in 3.3V if I am not mistaken, I
tried in 5V, it gives me the following error:

 #  flashrom -p serprog:/dev/ttyUSB0:115200
flashrom v0.9.2-r1028 on Linux 2.6.35-27-generic (x86_64), built with
libpci 3.0.0, GCC 4.4.4, little endian
flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org

Calibrating delay loop... OK.
Error: cannot synchronize protocol
- check communications and reset device?

"In July 2005, after several failed attempts to legalise software
patents in Europe, the patent establishment changed its strategy.
Instead of explicitly seeking to sanction the patentability of
software, they are now seeking to create a central European patent
court, which would establish and enforce patentability rules in their
favor, without any possibility of correction by competing courts or
democratically elected legislators."
