If you want your work to be useful to the Plan 9 community (and I hope you do), please stay with us and improve the real Plan 9. You can safely leave out the fakertc driver when building a bcm kernel. The only consequence is that you'll be prompted for date and time when booting with root filesystem on the local SD card (because the Pi doesn't have a rtc). If your root fs comes from another server (which I recommend), fakertc isn't used.
