Good grief.   Yet another project has a program called ubxyool;

Is it time to rename ubxtool to gpxubx?  Or?

No strong opinions here. Is the 'gpx' a typo, or intentional (with precedent) to make collisions less likely? I'm actually surprised that there haven't been more collisions with the 'gps' prefix, given that 'gps' is pretty generic.

Using 'gps' as the library names was probably especially ill-advised, but it can't be fixed now without breaking things.
