Clive,  I checked that once the above is done (including the kernel
update of course), the RTC is preserved through reboots and, what is
more, the date stamps in the DHCP client leases are set from a clock
that is up-to-date. 

I had to manually set the RTC clock from the system clock after NTP had
updated it during boot, but we could easily add a script to make this
happen automatically once time-sync.target is reached.

I would very much like to have kernel support for the RTC enabled for
normal users for this reason.
