[maemo-developers] Accessing GPS data remotely

I want to access the GPS data from my N810 from a Linux laptop over WiFi.
(or, possibly, Bluetooth or the USB cable)

The "regular" gpsd server listens on 2947 on all interfaces, so that I 
should be able to just run cgps or xgps on the laptop. But gpsd on the 
N810 seems to only listen on loopback.

Is there any config item to change this behaviour ?
Should I file a bug report ?

It seems silly to have to write extra interface applications when the 
existing server ought to do it directly.
