ok, another thing i noticed:

your "cat /proc/driver/rtc" gives
	...
	update_IRQ      : no
	periodic_IRQ    : no

my configuration says:

	periodic_IRQ    : yes

Maybe you should disable HPET in your kernel. As far as i know nobody
is using it. Especially the kernel option "HPET Control RTC IRQ" 
may disable your /dev/rtc.
