Hello,

basic support for timecounters has been committed into -current ( 
mostly ported from prep ). Please check if anything is wrong with it, 
especially on G5 hardware - I have no idea ( and no way to test ) if it 
works at all there.

You should see something like this in your kernel output:
timecounter: Timecounter "clockinterrupt" frequency 100 Hz quality 0
timecounter: selected timecounter "clockinterrupt" frequency 100 Hz 
quality 0
timecounter: Timecounter "macppc_mftb" frequency 10000000 Hz quality 0
timecounter: selected timecounter "macppc_mftb" frequency 10000000 Hz 
quality 0

The frequency reported for 'macppc_mftb' will vary, a beige G3 for 
instance ticks at ~16MHz.

Besides that, ofdump2 finally made it into the source tree, as 
/usr/sbin/ofctl - please check if it does anything funny on your 
hardware ( besides dumping the OpenFirmware device tree ), it works 
fine on what I have here ( PB3400, beige G3, Sun U1 )

have fun
Michael
