I am not an expert.  I have heard that it can go either way, it can be
device-dependent, and there is a window around the PPS edge (which can
be the leading or trailing edge) where NTP will "associate" the NMEA
sentence with the PPS signal.  The window can be fudged to be earlier or
later than its default position.
