Indeed, as far as I know from Arduino-related forums (when investigating a similar issue - cdc comms are also buggy in El Capitan -  I bumped into complains that their environment/projects stopped working after upgrade to El Capitan) - it turns out that starting 10.11 Apple somehow changed the way OSX works with usb (enumerates usb?). Besides, they removed tty devices.
Do you mean to say that avrdude needs tty to work properly?
Anyway, I though there were some users of avrdude running El Capitan - wanted to learn if they face such problem and their solutions...

Maybe the operating system now has some service (or whatever)
that is immediately grabbing a TTY device once it appears?

Alas, I'm afraid that's nothing which can be solved in
AVRDUDE, rather a kind of OS issue.  At the very least, it
requires someone with more insight into OSX.

Tested on two laptops with El Capitan with the same error. Works smoothly on Yosemite.

avrdude -c stk500v2 -P /dev/cu.usbmodemavrdope1 -p  attiny85
avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "/dev/cu.usbmodemavrdope1": Resource busy
