looking at the code, there seem to be different ways used to decide if
we build for x86. So some code for x86 gets built in but some other
piece is missing. As you only need FTDI support, you can just try to
build without the internal programmers (e.g. `make CONFIG_INTERNAL=no`).
If you know how to apply it, please also try the patch attached and
report back if it helps.

Nothing to apologize for. That error is very unexpected.
