I grabbed a copy, does not compile for me:

# make
cd src && make production
make[1]: Entering directory '/u/local/src/GPS/gnome-gps/src'
gcc -O2 -o gnome-gps.o -Wall -c -Wno-deprecated-declarations gnome-gps.c 
`pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0 libgps`
gnome-gps.c:32:2: error: #error Unknown gps API protocol version; see gps.h for 
the current value of GPSD_API_MAJOR_VERSION
 #error Unknown gps API protocol version; see gps.h for the current value of 
GPSD_API_MAJOR_VERSION
  ^~~~~
make[1]: *** [Makefile:26: gnome-gps.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/u/local/src/GPS/gnome-gps/src'
make: *** [Makefile:5: production] Error 2

You want to check the version at runtime, not when you compile.
