It's just a confirmation to message by Martin Hammerm"uller in this
bug report log.

 My amd64 running brand new Debian4 i386 stable release (installed
from CD images).

 Hardware:

 Asus M2N-E (AM2, nVidia nForce 570 Ultra chipset) AMD Athlon64
3000+ (not x2)

 # hwclock --version
hwclock from util-linux-2.12r

# aptitude show util-linux Version: 2.12r-19
 # hwclock

select() to /dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed out
 # hwclock --directisa
Sat Jul  7 14:02:59 2007  -0.432795 seconds

 So it made me patch /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh script with directisa
option for systime saving/restoring while shutdown/boot.
