Yes, I followed that page and I succed so far that it tell me that it can't 
find libgps. So, I tried to download gpsd sources and configure them 
with --target=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi. This went without errors or 
warnings but resulting binary was compiled to x86-64 anyway (according to 
file command). Should I wait until you update your blog with libgps 
compilation steps, start playing with mokomakefile or ask for advice 
somewhere else?
