Nowadays they are as likely to be TCXO's, temperature compensated 
crystal oscillators, in which the temperature is measured and used to 
drive a varicap diode, across the crystal, to compensate.  I think 
portable GPS receivers tend to use that approach.

In principle, you can also apply that compensation in software; you just 
need access to a thermistor that is thermally bonded to the crystal.
