Just launched gpxlogger with no gpsd running, though I belive running 
against a gpsd with no receiver connected would behave similarly (and I'd 
seen that once when a receiver problem resulted in no fixes).  Waited 10 
minutes to see if it would time out and it didn't.  Typed ^C which had no 
effect as expected.  Waited another 20 minutes or so before doing a 
"killall -9 gpxlogger" from another window.
