we should divide the code in several parts:

navigation.c holds the generic routing related functions, that always stay the 
same, no matter what actually does the routing work.

other modules, like navigation_gosmore.c hold the specific functions which are 
only called by functions in navigation.c

I'm not a friend of calling external binaries. 
but if it works, this may be better than nothing.
