Sure, but my point was that the bald assertion -- "The basic problem
is that using a PPS clock and a GPS(NMEA) clock separates what belongs
together" -- is wrong.  Sometimes it's useful or essential that your
PPS and timestamps come from the same place and sometimes it's
irrelevant.  Certainly using the NMEA driver to infer PPS quality can
be a win but it's not guaranteed.
