 Hi,

 osgeo4w's build of gpsbabel is not working on GPX files, which is a major
 (the primary?) reason for shipping gpsbabel in the first place. the error
 message when you try to use it is:

 {{{
 GPX: This build excluded GPX support because expat was not installed.
 }}}

 see also #59 and #171, and the GRASS version of this bug:
   https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/1171


 tested in a GRASS 6.5svn nightly wingrass build from the last week.


 thanks,
 Hamish
