>Description:
	The author of the code has released an update of the code
	used for the astro/gpsman port, going from 5.4.1 to 5.4.2.

	Enlclosed is a patch to the port to cause it to use the new
	code.

	Per the author, here is a list of changes since 5.4.1:
-----
Changes since 5.4.1:

- there is now a FreeBSD package thanks to David Wolfskill
  (david@catwhisker.org).

- Dutch language support contributed by Rob Buitenhuis
  (rob@buitenhs.demon.nl).

- changing the datum of all the waypoints in a group can now be
  made from the group window.

- conversion parameters for the ``Rijks Driehoeksmeting'' datum
  corrected (thanks to Rob Buitenhuis).

- the stereographic projection and the Taiwan grid (description
  made available by Dan Jacobson, jidanni@yahoo.com.tw) are now
  supported; descriptions of the Iceland and the Netherlands national
  coordinates grid inserted in the manual.

- a few more definitions of ellipsoids and datums.

- coordinates for grids not having zones are now shown with only
  the easting and northing fields.

- A3 paper can now be used, as well as a new date format for,
  e.g., ``2002-02-01 16:50:40'' (suggested by Anto Veldre,
  anto.veldre@tllapt.ee).

- for adventurous users knowing Tcl/Tk: if there is a file named
  patch.tcl in the GPSMan user directory, it will be loaded
  just after all the GPSMan source files have been loaded (suggested
  by Slaven Rezic, slaven.rezic@berlin.de).

- enhanced Lowrance support and documentation by Brian Baulch
  (baulchb@hotkey.net.au).

- Garmin support: conversion of floating-point numbers in Tcl/Tk
  depends on the machine architecture and is now checked, the user
  being warned if there are problems; this will not be the case with
  little- or big-endian machines with IEEE standard floating-point
  numbers; i.e., most of the computers currently in use; problem
  solved with the help of Dragan Milicic (dragan@math.utah.edu).

- last but not least, there is now a separate program to convert
  the routes listed in HTML pages of the MapsOnUS site into GPSMan
  files; at its core is code contributed by Frank Kujawski
  (Frank@Kujawski.org); a better scheme for naming waypoints is
  being devised.
