The fix:
In the gpslib.c file, remove the const qualifier from the HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM structure at the end of the file.
Borkata and myself actually just figured this out before I read this post to! Crazy that's what was causing the issue. I will let you know how everything is working in a day. I've been out doing lots of job interviews and it's kept me busy. As always I really appreciate your help. Thanks.
