Which would get us to actively violate at least early versions of the
spec (the current one doesn't appear to be as strict anymore). I'm
fine making it easy to work around the issue, but I'm against us doing
the wrong thing by default.

Apart from that, Ross, the patch you provided breaks on systems
without CMOS clock (e.g. so called legacy free ones). This definitely
can't be a compile time thing.
