I'm sure it was one of these 'how can we get some piece of code reused to do something almost entirely unrelated' ideas. Sounds like what I'd have done just to solve the hwclock handling and get on with hacking other stuff without being irritated by constant fscks ... Code quality has improved a huge lot since. Keep in mind that mac68k was developed separate from m68k in the beginning. I have never had Alan's instinct for writing good clean code, 'it works' was usually good enough.
I hope nobody took my comments as criticism of their coding skills. I'm pretty sure I was not only involved in but at the time actively advocated the solution I was saying was a bad idea. I've certainly been guilty of as much or more sloppy coding than everyone else. In any case, I want to encourage all the people who still do work on this that their work is not wasted and people do appreciate it.
