 x86_64 does not necessarily support /dev/rtc due to the new device options
 (though udev creates a symlink).  It seems that util-linux-ng-2.14 does
 support a '--rtc=$device' option.  This does give us the possibility of
 using a pre-created device node in /dev/ so that the clock is set very
 early for boot logging, but some text would have to be written about the
 options and a new DEVICE= line added to /etc/sysconfig/clock.  See the
 previous discussion in #2189 for background info.
