[Xastir] Xastir 1.5 and ESR's gpsd daemon - longitude bad

[Richard E. Polivka]

gpsd 2.23 (in SI-RF binary mode)
MS GPS Locator (SI-RF unit)
xastir 1.5 - interface gpsd 127.0.0.1:2947

Have program set up to get GPS data via gpsd. Xastir says data bad when 
xgps is receiving good data. Lat/long appear to be high precision: 
43.019579  -88.050531. This is polled from 127.0.0.1:2947 (gpsd port) by 
using telnet.

When running debug at level 1023, the display strings from gpsd appear 
to be fine. Here is one string:

$GPGGA,154505,4301.1500,N,8803.0378,W,2,03,8.00,218.0,M,-34.460,M,,*76

So with this data, the latitude comes out right but the program puts the 
longitude at -180 deg.

Any thoughts that I could try out?

73,
