The alarm_event_t::alarm_time time_t seems to want an actual time in the future.
For instance, see set_alarm() here: 
https://stage.maemo.org/viewcvs.cgi/projects/tools/trunk/maemo_testing/maemo-examples/example_alarm.c?root=maemo&view=markup
which does
        /* Get current time and add two seconds to it,
         * meaning that alarm should be sent at
         * this time */
        time(&current_time);
        alarm_time = localtime(&current_time);
        alarm_time->tm_sec += 2;
        /* Set the alarm time */
        event.alarm_time = mktime(alarm_time);

So I think that the (wrongly formatted) documentation is wrong when it says 
that it is the 
"Number of minutes between each recurrence" here:
http://maemo.org/api_refs/3.0/alarm-api/structalarm__event__t.html

But if the alarm_time is an actual time, instead of an interval, how can the 
recurrence and recurrence_count fields work?
