That's what the -o option is for, passing options to the subordinate gpsd.
You want -o "-D 5".  Orthogonality is good.

Unsurprising.  This can be caused by quantum fluctuations in your gcc
toolchain :-).  I last saw it when I switched to gcc 4.0, which moved
some math on-chip and apparently increased the precision.
