Hi Peter,
Have you tried starting Navit as you described:
> #!/bin/sh
> /opt/qtmoko/bin/gps-poweron.sh
+/opt/qtmoko/bin/checknavitgpsoff.sh &
> /opt/qtmoko/bin/navit.bin &

...and additionally have something like this (checknavitgpsoff.sh)
running in background:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Defining variables:
logfile=/var/log/checknavitgpsoff.log
sleeptime=10
# Initial sleep, to let Navit start:
sleep ${sleeptime}
# Loop search for Navit process:
while
do
  ps ax|grep -v 'grep'|grep 'navit'
  if (($?==0))
  then
    echo `date +"%F %X"`": Navit still running..." >> ${logfile}
    sleep ${sleeptime}
  else
    echo `date +"%F %X"`": Unable to find Navit PID. Turning off GPS." >> ${logfile}
    /opt/qtmoko/bin/gps-poweroff.sh
    break
    # or 'exit 0' instead of break
  fi
done
