So DEVICE_UNCHANGED is indication the tty stopped for at least 5 seconds 
? Looks like it keeps incrementing from there despite some changes, ie a 
data hiccup is persistent ?

While the error seems to still happen when speed is fixed the 
consequences aren't so bad when gpsd doesn't start autobauding.

Feels like the best test to see whether a GPS hw problem or serial 
driver problem would be to tee the serial TX off to another port and 
watch ... unfortunately the system is remote, will have to see what I 
can arrange. Open to any other ideas ...

In the meantime I need to figure out why the client nodes won't synch to 
the timeserver node (despite open firewalls and all restrictions removed 
in ntp.conf). Unfortunately the ntpsec listserver isn't as responsive as 
the gpsd one, still waiting on subscription request ... :-/
