The slave does read the stream now.  The slave just never asks to be
sent any data, and by default the master does not sent anything but the
VERSION JSON.

So what should the slave gpsd send to the master gpsd?  Something like
this maybe:

{"class":"WATCH","enable":true,"json":false,"nmea":true,"raw":0,"scaled":false,"timing":false,"split24":false,"pps":false}

Since it used to work I guess I'm interested in restoring old behavior.
