I have one over here:
<http://websvn.hylands.org/listing.php?repname=Projects&path=%2Favr%2Fbootloader-stk500%2F&rev=0&sc=0>

Or if the above gets clobbered,
<http://websvn.hylands.org/>, click on Projects, avr, bootloader-stk500

I modified it to send out a character at the start, but you can tweak
it however you like :)

I've used it with ATMega8's, 16's and ATMega128's. The #ifdef's seem
to imply it should work with the 8535.
