No, I just tested my system with linux 2.6.27-rc1 and linuxpps 5.3.1
and it works correctly:

   giometti at jeeg:~/kernel/Documentation/pps$ sudo ./ppsldisc /dev/ttyS0 &
   [1] 2549
   giometti at jeeg:~/kernel/Documentation/pps$ sudo ./ppsldisc /dev/ttyS1 &
   [2] 2556
   giometti at jeeg:~/kernel/Documentation/pps$ ls /sys/class/pps/pps
   pps0/ pps1/ 
   giometti at jeeg:~/kernel/Documentation/pps$ cat /sys/class/pps/pps?/name 
   serial0
   serial1

Someone else in this list got some similar problems?

Ciao,

Rodolfo
