Thanks for the suggestions.

In our working system we modified ftdi_eeprom to include detection of a 
device with VID:PID of 0000:0000 (we had one of those once), and to 
detect devices with any of our assigned PIDs (so we could program any 
device with the desired PID).
I'll also try examples/eeprom.

Thanks.
