It's quite a delayed response, but did you ever consider an All Silicon 
resonator?
For example Maxim's MAX7375:

http://pdfserv.maxim-ic.com/en/ds/MAX7375.pdf

It comes in all common frequencies used in microcontrollers. It's the same
accuracy as ceramic resonators, low cost (1$/pc. in bulk), low power 
consuming,
high Q, fast startup, and in very tiny SMD packages.

Main features:
2.7V to 5.5V Operation
Factory-Trimmed Oscillator
No External Components Required
±10mA Output Drive Current
2% Initial Accuracy
±50ppm/°C Temp Drift
Fast Startup Time: 5µs
45% to 55% Maximum Duty Cycle
5ns Output Rise and Fall Time
No PLL
Low Jitter: 160psP-P at 8MHz
Tiny Surface-Mount Package (SC70, SOT23)
-40°C to +125°C Temperature Range
