Potlatch can handle waypoints, they show up as special POIs you have
to unlock to turn into actual nodes in the database.

What it doesn't handle, or more specifically the GPX import script, is
GPX tracks that only have a waypoint section.

I don't know why that's the case exactly. I've heard that it's to make
it harder for people importing e.g. KML waypoints converted to GPX. If
that's the case that's silly, it's trivial to work around it and
obviously it restricts completely legitimate use, such as the one
discussed in this thread.
