building against gpsd fails

[Greg Troxel]

(I'm not on the geoclue list.)

I pulled from your public git repo at

Thu Mar 11 17:50:32 UTC 2010

and tried to build on NetBSD 5.0_STABLE (i386) with gpsd svn trunk.

I needed the following patch to configure.ac to allow --enable-gpsd to
succeed.  Then, I got a build failure because of using gps_set_callback,
which I believe to be a withdrawn interface.
