You may have to work at it, but BeagleBoard recommends the Adafruit
GPS breakout:

https://www.adafruit.com/product/746

I know of at least one successful install of that and gpsd.

Here is a howto:

http://beagleboard.org/project/GPS/

And another howto:

So not plug compatible, but clearly jumper compatible.  5 jumpers instead
of a direct plugin.  So equivalent, but different enough for its own howto.
