I don't know what OS you are using, but if you happen to be on Ubuntu
10.04, Mepis 8.x, or Debian Lenny, there are Xastir binaries available
that include the new gpsd support.  The new gpsd support was added on
June 14th while the binaries were built in either August or September
depending on which one.
