Works for me.  But there were some fixes there last week.  Can
you confirm this with git head?

Notice the next two lines which set the target:

                self.ser = gps.gpscommon(host=None)
                self.ser.connect(opts['target']['server'],
                                 opts['target']['port'])

Your patch loses the port number.
