8+ It would be nice to utilize the interrupt capabilities of some
9  RTC parts.  This could be used to trigger checking the software
10  clock against the hardware clock.
11
12+ The periodic capability of most RTCs is not suitable for use
13  as a general purpose flexible clock tick source.  For example,
14  many RTCs generate only a handful of periods with 100 Hz being the
15  most frequent.
16
17+ The tick field is not set on get.  Anything smaller than a second
18  is ignored on set and get operations.
19
20+ Day of week is ignored since RTEMS does not set it internally.
21
22+ There is no attempt in RTEMS to know about time zones.
