Well, tried the latest rc-6 for 2.6.28:

The rc patch applied cleanly.
The stuff ran fine with 2.6.26.2. Config remained the same.

After manually  starting ppsldisc:

[root at epia dev]# ls -l *ps*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      5 2008-12-26 10:54 gps0 -> ttyS0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      4 2008-12-26 10:53 gpspps0 -> pps0
crw-rw---- 1 root tty  254, 0 2008-12-26 10:53 pps0

So what is wrong?!?
