[BAT] Re: Add GPSd support?

Returning to the subject of support for GPSd, I've got a slightly cleaner
version of my hack adding this feature to 'dstumbler'.  I'll tidy up a bit,
and make the patch available for testing.

This is a followup to my previous message:

More info on what GPSd is all about:

My 'dstumbler' patch _still_ does not use the GPS clock.  Being able to
take the timestamp for logging APs from the GPS rather than from the OS,
and/or a GPSd hack to set the system time from the GPS, would be cool,
but beyond the time I have available these days.
