I can see why mcclockvar.h might belong in sys/dev/tc, since there
exist mc<whatever> clocks on TC, as exist on the alpha.  However, on
the alpha, they also exist on other busses, and so putting them into
dev/tc doesn't sounds like the right thing to do.

I don't see why clockvar.h belongs there at all.  Alphas have multiple
different system clock types, and so something like clockvar.h makes
sense for them.  However, it does _not_ belong in a TC-specific
directory for the Alpha, and i'm not sure it makes sense _at all_ for
a pmax.
