ODK Collect: concat GPS?

Is there a way to calculate/concatenate something, inside a form, that
includes GPS locations? I keep getting FC errors.

I know how to set the xml up and use concatenation - I want to know about
using GPS specifically. I tried inside a group without success and have
quickly run out of ideas. I'd prefer to handle the work inside the form
and not on the backend server.

As a simple example: concat("You are here: ",${geopoint1}) - this fails
me. I can collect several GPS locations but when I add the calculate task
it fails.

Thanks.

Adam,

This is likely because Geopoint is a custom data type and doesn't do
the right thing. And it's probably my fault because I wrote Geopoint.

Anyway, it's a JavaRosa issue and so I've filed it at
https://bitbucket.org/javarosa/javarosa/issue/62/geopoint-concatenation-failing.
If you have a sample form or the stack trace from Collect, please
attach the form or stack trace to the issue.
