AGPS scripts are automatically called by qtmoko's gps system.

Dump is called when GPS has fix and saves some data to 
/var/something_with_gps_in_name.

Restore is called when some app requests gps - it uses the data above to 
speedup getting fix (IIRC i could get fix in like 10s with the agps data).

I dont know if standby is currently used - but Freerunner's GPS has ability to 
enter some low power sleep mode and after waking up it can get fast fix again.

Maybe you can find some more accurate info here:
