Hi,

I had the misfortune to boot Ultrix 4.2a on some machines.
It has the side-effect of making the clock a year and a day
slow, when I reboot NetBSD.

The patches for clock.c I got from Andrew Gallatin (and that I think
were once in -current) avoid that problem.  Is there some bug in
running the baseboard time-of-year clock at the same time
as Ultrix does?

If  this is a democracy, I'd vote for Ultrix compatibility...
