You need to change the crystal.
You'll also need to change the definition of 

  /*!
   * \brief return frequency of master oscillator on USRP
   */
  long  fpga_master_clock_freq () const { return 64000000; }

in usrp_basic.h  The rest of the code should follow, though I haven't
tested it.  YMMV, patches welcome ;)

Not sure about those.  Paging Matt Ettus, paging Matt Ettus...
