The Linux PPS code now handles  parallel port.  You don't have to
write your own.   Also I think the PPS API was a way to add other
physical devices so there is no need for an ad-hoc solution.     Maybe
you need to upgrade to latest kernel to get this.

Oh, if the Sure GPS does loose the programming (It would be simple to
test) you can fit it by placing a battery across the power supply.  I
used a coin ell holder salvaged from a dead PC for one GPS I have and
AA cells work too.  But I bet the sure is new enough to use eprom or
flash.
