IMHO the serial support should be left IN GPSdrive, not removed.
That way if one runs on a limited system memorywise, and aren't going to 
be running any other apps that should access the GPS, one can still run 
GPSdrive.

GPSD is a benefit only, if you need to run multiple apps that should 
access a GPS.
Being able to use GPSDrive without other packages running, with a 
straight NMEA input on a serial port is IMHO a big benefit of the package.
