Actually I did pick it up by mistake. 3.25 does appear to be a tad better :)

More specifically, GPSD 3.9 is not compatible with Python 3.  If you
really must build this ancient GPSD, then you'll need to use Python 2,
which may also mean digging up an older version of SCons (<3) which works
with Python 2.

Or did you think that 3.9 is the latest version based on a dumb sort
algorithm? :-)
