Hi Geert,

This document appears to be Inside Macintosh vol. III ch. 2. It describes 
the early RTC chip that lacks two-byte operations and XPRAM, and pre-dates 
all Mac hardware supported in mainline Linux. But it does offer some 
useful data, though not enough to answer all of your criticisms (as I 
said).

So, unless you have other ideas, I will revise this patch and insert an 
earlier patch to address existing code, and codify what little reliable 
chip data we have.
