That looks problematic.

Did you enable HPET?  When hpet timer is enabled, it disables RTC
interrupts.  Even worse, it disables RTC irq even if HPET is not
detected from BIOS but only compiled.

(To be noted: HPET is indded on most of todays PCs, but it's never
 correctly initialized via BIOS, APCI, whatever.)
