Even with '-d'?

I can't reproduce it on ARAnyM with 3.1.4.

But this indeed looks like the same problem. Are you using a Debianized 3.1.4
source tree?

Yes, that should fix this problem.

You cannot rely on that message. It just assumes A2000/A500/A600 etc.
have an A2000-style clock chip. But on all but A2000 the RTC is optional.
BTW, I also asked Jens Schönfeld.
