I mean that it probably doesn't have to be in kernelland, and rather be
a userland translator.

Do you mean we can implement an userland translator (it is also a rtc device driver, something like /hurd/rtc?) without using the device interface (e.g. device_open("rtc",...) to open rtc) provided by gnumach? If the answer is yes. How?
Userland can implement device_open etc. Actually we would rather make
/dev/rtc expose the usual ioctls that applications expect to be able to
use, we don't necessarily want to implement the device_* interface.

How do we expose the usual ioctls?
