It used to be there, but unfortunately there sometimes were bugs that 
made gpsd spin in a tight loop, and it has 2 times crashed my entire 
system because it was running at realtime priority.
Then I removed the call.  On my system it seems to make no difference.  
When you want it, and trust the gpsd code to be loop-free, feel free to 
add it again.
