Yes! That's why I did CONFIG_PPC_RTC, it's such simple code, but it helps a
lot to bring us in line with the other architectures.

For the record: Yes, it works. (On a Pmac 6400, with a 2.2.17pre11
kernel from bitkeeper; 2.4.0-test4 still doesn't want to boot, so I
can't test it).

On bitkeeper kernel 2.4.0-test4, I could get it to work, with the
following modifications (a patch is attached below):

- The file drivers/macintosh/rtc.c was absent. I copied the one from the
_2_2 kernel tree and changed it in analogy to the sbus/rtc.c file.

- In drivers/macintosh/Makefile, rtc.o should be in O_OBJS instead of
L_OBJS.

- If compiled as module, rtc reports unresolved symbols, because the
EXPORT_SYMBOLS in arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c are between
#ifdef CONFIG_PPC_RTC - #endif
instead of #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_RTC_MODULE, as in the _2_2 tree.
