gpsd API 9 has a different altitude reporting - the "altitude" field is deprecated and undefined, one has to use "altMSL" instead.

A patch doing the above is attached.

Updated the patch to also support gpsd API 10, which places the fix status field in a different place.

I've committed the patch to the upstream bzr repository.

https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~foxtrotgps-team/foxtrotgps/trunk/revision/328

 status fixcommitted

I don't have permission to make a release, but I'll upload the fix to
Debian and from there it will migrate to Ubuntu.
