If I remove the symlink, it works but without the GPS (as one might
reasonably expect) and this is the corresponding syslog message:

Jun 18 17:59:02 pscpc ntpd[3075]: refclock_open /dev/gps0: No such file or 
directory
Jun 18 17:59:02 pscpc ntpd[3075]: configuration of 127.127.20.0 failed

So it looks as if a failed open is occuring, and that is crashing ntpd
with a segmentation fault. What is not clear is why the two type of
failed open should differ, and why it can't open /dev/gps0 while gtkterm
seems happy enough to do so.
