Very strange, the first lines should be:

+ id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) 
groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel),11(floppy),26(tape),27(video),78(kvm),105(plugdev)
+ uname -a
Linux dilbert 5.11.2-gentoo #1 SMP Fri Feb 26 19:12:37 PST 2021 x86_64 Intel(R) 
Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
+ cat /etc/gentoo-release /etc/lsb-release /etc/os-release
Gentoo Base System release 2.7
[...]

How did all that get skipped??  "id" is a simple as it gets...

Did it ever print "id"?

Also, the intend of gpsdebuginfo is that users would send it verbatim, not
edited.

Good.

And above that?

It hung running this:
    head -n 1 `which gpscat`

How can stop crash on that?  Is gpscat not in your path?

I added a test for gpscat being in your path.  Now in git head.
