any sane programmer will use slee/wakeup, poll etc. with /dev/rtc :)
the hairy part is just setting up the interrupt freq on the RTC.
the big problem with the RTC is the restriction to power-of-2 HZ
settings. not very useful for a lot of things.
I wonder why /dev/rtc isn't used more than it
is now.
Because sleep/wakeup, poll, etc are much nicer interfaces than /dev/rtc.
