Debian patch that allows compilation with libgps (from `gpsd').
Failing to apply this patch, we get the following error:

  vikgpslayer.c:237: error: field 'realtime_gpsd_unit' has incomplete type
  vikgpslayer.c: In function 'vik_gps_layer_new':
  vikgpslayer.c:473: warning: implicit declaration of function 'gpsd_units'
  vikgpslayer.c: In function 'rt_gpsd_try_connect':
  vikgpslayer.c:1321: warning: passing argument 2 of 'gps_set_raw_hook' from incompatible pointer type
