I'm at a stand still right now.  If I am the only one using gpsd on 
OS X then hardly any point to testing it.

Not unstable, just broken...

Odd, since I find Gentoo unstable to be very stable.  Gentoo unstable
can be a bit hinky, when they do update it.

El Capitan.

mini:~ root# xcode-select -p
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

Same as yours, but:

mini:~ root# xcode-select --install
xcode-select: error: no developer tools were found, and no install could be 
requested (perhaps no UI is present), please install manually from 
'developer.apple.com'.

It looks installed to me:

mini:~ root# xcode-select -v
xcode-select version 2343.

I do not see a 'reinstall' option.  Delete and reinstall

I'm a plain vanilla guy.  I always try to make the default work.

All xcrun gets me is a usage that confuses me....

I do all the 'show' options, but I have no idea what they mean.
