Some GPS boxes turn off the PPS signal when they don't have enough good satellites.
For those, a PIC works well as a LED driver: on solid when PPS is flapping, blinking when PPS is not changing, off when there is no power.
Obviously you can use your favorite tiny CPU. I happened to have a PIC programmer handy.
