The no-interrupts-fallback seems to do the trick:
thecus:~/debsrc/adjtimex-1.23#/adjtimex --compare=1 --verbose
opened /dev/rtc for reading
/dev/rtc doesn't allow user access to update interrupts
- using busy wait instead
waiting for CMOS time change

But as the no-interrupts makes it working, IMHO this could be packaged for a release fit for lenny. I got the patches from #460065, and tried to patch the debian sources (1.23) in that order: no-interrupt-fallback.patch no-interrupt-fallback-3.patch rtc0_fallback.patch 2nd try: no-interrupt-fallback.patch rtc0_fallback.patch no-interrupt-fallback-3.patch result the same: the rtc0_fallback fails to apply. thecus:~/debsrc/adjtimex-1.23# cat ../no-interrupt-fallback.patch | patch patching file adjtimex.c Hunk #3 succeeded at 507 (offset -11 lines).
