Version 1.07 of gpsd

Release Notes: In this version, em.c now uses time.h, there is improved Earthmate support, setsockopt was added to add SO_REUSEADDR, so that gpsd can stop and immediately restart, and support was added for bitrates higher than 38400, needed for the SIRF chipset. A longitude of under 100 degrees is now printed zero-padded as needed, similarly with a latitude of under 10, and there are fixes so that the GGA sentence no longer erroneously prints fix type (2/3) instead of fix quality, and calculates fix type correctly.

Release Notes: This release doesn't fail when chrpath is unavailable; it falls back to static linking. This helps people not running Linux.

Release Notes: GPSD-NG, the new JSON-based command protocol, is now deployed. As a consequence, AIS is now fully supported in both the daemon and client. Detection of the end of a fix-reporting cycle is now reliable. Accordingly, data is accumulated from cycle start and the "J" (nojitter) option on the both server and client is gone. A new driver was added for Motorola Oncore receivers. gpsfake can now accept multiple log files, interleaving test sentences from each. gpsd now accepts error estimates from the NMEA $GPGBS sentence.

Release Notes: While work has occurred on other drivers since the last release, the key reason for pushing this release is to fix a nasty brown-paper-bag bug in the handling of leap years. This caused the date to be wrong by one day until the leap day in February.
