Judging by the code, this is an old (2.9x) version. In more recent
versions, the caller allocates the gpsdata structure.

I see that there is no test of the return value from gps_open (). That
might tell you something.

Also, if I recall correctly, gps_poll () had other possible error
values in addition to -1.

In your else clause, you should first examine gpsdata->set and only
proceed if you have valid fix data.
