David,
running RPi with GPS+PPS here.
I compiled my own kernel and the one major gotcha I had was an RTFM
issue. The kernel used on the RPi is not the compressed vmlinuz
kernel used on PC's. I recompiled my kernel 10 times or more before I
went back scouring the 'net to find out the kernel in use was the
kernel.img file. Reason I say this is the first time I thought I had
this working I was seeing kernel generated PPS signals and not GPS
generated PPS signals. Life got much easier when I figured that out
:)

I did contribute to the thread listed at the RPi forums but need to go
back and add what got it working for me. I also moved to a more
current kernel. I compiled a bunch of extra stuff in there as I want
to play with the networking stuff too so my kernel is not a small one.
uname -a
Linux pisces 3.6.1+ #1 Fri Nov 2 02:10:35 PDT 2012 armv6l GNU/Linux

James,
Many thanks for that information. Lots of good stuff! Perhaps some day
in the future I'll be recompiling the kernel (I recall that as being
long process), but for now I'll just try to remember to reboot after
power-up.
