I was able to sort out my issue with the DST bits with the help of the
code Andy Backus recently published.  I believe my code should now be ready
for anyone who's curious to try out.  Complete details are available on the
following page:

This new code is a bit simpler than the ATTiny85-based code I published
before, as I've eliminated the use of interrupts and now use the GPS
module's PPS signal to control bit timing and simple calls to the millis()
function to control the timing of the bit modulation.  I still recommend
swapping the 16 MHz crystal for a 15.36 MHz one, but you should be able to
run the code on any ATMega328-based Arduino using a 16 MHz clock, although
with reduced range from the antenna to the clock.
