Thanks for the plug (I'm the ClockBlock designer) but this isn't 
accurate.  The Clock-Block requires an input clock signal in the HF 
range and won't work with a PPS signal.

However, a TAPR Reflock II (http://www.tapr.org/kits_reflock_ii.html) 
could sort of do this -- it can steer an oscillator to GPS via PPS 
signals, and that oscillator need not be at something simple like 10 
MHz; it could operate directly at the motherboard's clock frequency.  So 
you would still need to provide a piece of decent-quality quartz in the 
solution.
