You were right (and I as well to doubt my first results). And I also didn't
take ntpd in account.

Now:

So the pull-up in gpin-mode6 must be enable to *write* the RTC, i.e.
the msecure pin must indeed be pulled up (or hogged to "1").

It also works with gpio-hog + PIN_OUTPUT | MUX_MODE6.

This means:
* nirq1 is needed so that we don't have the timeout (on read/write)
* gpio-hog is needed on MODE6 or MODE0 to be able to really write (and not be silently ignored)

Thanks and BR,
Nikolaus
