Got it!

Alright. First off, download the proper driver:

http://www.viewcon.net/driver/rs11/imac.sit

Second, install it.

Third, don't reboot. You need to edit the Info.plist for this driver.
Code:
tibox:/System/Library/Extensions/ProlificUsbSerial.kext/Contents root# ls
Info.plist          MacOS               PkgInfo             Resources           pbdevelopment.plist
open up Info.plist in your favorite editor (yay vi) and add the following to the <dict> section:
Code:
                <key>067B_AAA0</key>
                <dict>
                        <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
                        <string>com.prolific.driver.PL2303</string>
                        <key>IOClass</key>
                        <string>com_prolific_driver_PL2303</string>
                        <key>IOProviderClass</key>
                        <string>IOUSBInterface</string>
                        <key>bConfigurationValue</key>
                        <integer>1</integer>
                        <key>bInterfaceNumber</key>
                        <integer>0</integer>
                        <key>idProduct</key>
                        <integer>43680</integer>
                        <key>idVendor</key>
                        <integer>1659</integer>
                </dict>
Reboot, open up kismac/terrabrowser/whatever and tell it your GPS is at /dev/tty.usbserial0

Tada!
