What version of DAHDI are you using?  As long as the host kernel is able to 
accurately keep accurate wall time, I'm not aware of any conditions that would 
prevent dahdi_dummy in dahdi-linux 2.2.1 from working fine, so I'm very curious 
if this isn't the case.  In fact, in the trunk of dahdi-linux dahdi_dummy.ko is 
off by default and dahdi.ko will be able to keep time regardless of whether 
there are any physical spans connected or configured.
