You might investigate use of the National Semiconductor 26F31 and 26F32
devices.  AMD makes a workable set of differential buffers that we
have used for years.  These are the 26LS31 and 26LS32.
If you can handle the speed, the optimum for skew is probably the
26C31/32 pair from National.  Also of note is the National DS 8921 AN
differential driver/receiver pair.
