[ gpsdrive ] OT: ? Pipeing stdout and stderr from GPSDrive to a log file

Hi again..

I run GPSDrive as before: 
Version 2.09 on SLED 10 sp1, and a  BU-353 USB GPS Receiver.

I use a HP nc8000 laptop for the experimentations.
I leave GPSDriove running with "Saver Track" enabled.
After an undefined time it segfaults on me.
I want to store a debug log somewhere to try to see WHY it segfaults.
But i cant seem to redirect the "gpsdrive -d" output into a file.

I tried several different ways:
gpsdrive -d >> logfile
gpsdrive -d 1>&2 >> logfile 
gpsdrive -d | tee -a logfile

But from what i can see, the log doesnt really mirror what i see on stdout.
On stdout i can see logs like
satnumber:	24 elev :	7 azimuth:	169 signal	0db
satnumber:	 9 elev:	7 azimuth:	161 signal	0db

but these does not show up in the logfile,

So my question is:
How do i grab EVERYTHING that comes from gpsdrive -d and shove it into a file 
for later debugging?
