Thus programs like gpsd can now write the nanoseconds in addition to the
microseconds. If there's an old version of ntpd running then it just
evaluates the microseconds, but new versions (ntp-dev for now) check if
the nanoseconds fields are filled up and use them if this is the case.

Thus an old ntpd works with a new gpsd, and a new ntpd works with an old
gpsd. See:

Bug 1232 - nanosecond support in SHM driver
https://bugs.ntp.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1232

gpsd doesn't support the nanoseconds in SHM driver. :(
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gpsd.git/tree/ntpshm.c

Oops, that's strange.

I was sure that somewhere in the discussion about the implementation I had read that gpsd would support this now.

So sorry for this mis-information. I'm personally not working with gpsd.
