No.
Im nut sure how to disable udev, BUT

The /dev/pps{n} device does get created, the real problem is that
    (1) ttyctrl hangs and cant be killed.

    (2) There is something going on that I dont understand (but will
          look at today, ntpd has problems doing a stat and open on
          /dev/pps0, BUT the test program doesnt... 
          MUMPH....
          Will look at that and see what is REALLY going on.
    (3) In any case, the test program only sees ONE timestamp 
          and then hangs,  checking /sys/class/pps/pps1 shows the same 
          timestamp, so things have stopped.
