Couldn't you still filter out the stuff above 1 GHz?  Or maybe you
would introduce just as much jitter by smoothing off the square wave as
you would avoid by getting rid of the noise...  what a pain.  There's a
reason why I'm not an engineer :-).

Right, well as jonte0 says you can easily check what's the worst
possible case.  But there are slightly more sophisticated ways that are
quite easy to think of - for example if you can change the clock speed
you can simply monitor the buffer and adjust when necessary.  That's
how the Lavry DA10 is supposed to function, although it appears not to.
