Agreed - it's resolving the library or linking issues.  I guess we have
the same problem on Windows when newer software relies on the greater
range of functions on newer processors, and the 32/64 differences of
course.

History: I need particular support for a u-blox MAX-M8Q which is in gpsd
3.20, but Buster only includes gpsd 3.17 (like its NTP support in way
behind) and I was advised to compile from the source, which works
correctly, except that my own software compiled against the same source
fails.  Do all this on a RasPi-4B and it all works including my own
software.  I had tried backports but I guess that doesn't [yet] support
older processors.  Or something.
