I have a NetBSD box, but I'm also way behind.

My current problem (on Linux) is that "scons check" barfs.

Consistency-checking driver methods...
./test_packet -c >/dev/null
./test_packet: error while loading shared libraries: libgpsd.so.22: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory
scons: *** [packet-regress] Error 127
scons: building terminated because of errors.

My reading is that it's trying to use the installed library (which isn't 
there (yet)) rather than the one it just built which is the one that I want 
to check before I install it.

I think there is a simple environment variable to tell it where to look.  
This looks like it:

  3.3.1. LD_LIBRARY_PATH
