[gpsd-dev] ✘RTCM3.2 fixed

[Gary E. Miller]

Yo All!

git head is updated with a fix for RTCM3.2  We never saw it before
because gpsd had almost no RTCM3 test cases until lately.

RTCM3 is a stream of bytes not chars.  Yet the array was defined as
chars.

This was causing problems in sign extension.

On amd64/Gentoo sign was extended:

(unsigned int)(char 0x80) became: 0xfffffff80

But on Pi2/Wheezy the same thing became: 0x80.

The obvious fix was simply to redefine RTCM3 as an array of unsigned
chars.  As god intended.  Still, the difference in sign extension is
odd.

All regression tests now pass for me on pi2/wheey and amd64/gentoo.
