The problem is that there is lots of printout and any warnings like that have 
scrolled way off the top of my screen.

I like Greg's suggestion of having scons check bail up front if chrpath isn't 
installed.

Python 2.7.5 (default, Oct  8 2013, 12:18:28) 
[GCC 4.8.1 20130814 (Red Hat 4.8.1-6)] on linux2

That's on a not-yet-released Fedora 20 so there might be something strange on 
that system.

I tried it on a Fedora 19 system but I've got a new problem.  This now 
happens on both systems.

gcc -o gpsdecode -Wl,-rpath=/home/murray/gpsd/gpsd -Wl,-rpath=//usr/local/lib 
gpsdecode.o -L. -L/usr/local/lib -lgpsd -lgps -lm
./libgpsd.so: undefined reference to `pthread_create'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
scons: *** [gpsdecode] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.

It worked a while ago on the F-20 box.  (That's how we got far enough to 
discuss errors from scons check.)

--------

This error message is followed by a backtrace which isn't helpful.
  Package ncurses was not found in the pkg-config search path.
  Perhaps you should add the directory containing `ncurses.pc'
  to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
  No package 'ncurses' found

You might tweak that to suggest looking in build.txt and putting a paragraph 
in there about needing to install ncurses-devel on Fedora.
