Where can I find these "rtc-tools"? They don't seem to be carried
by e.g. Ubuntu or Debian.  Google Search gives lots of results for
something that looks completely unrelated.

Ubuntu also suggest:

    $ rtc
    Command 'rtc' not found, but can be installed with:
    sudo apt install nvram-wakeup

Is that the same rtc tool?

Iff this can be cross-compiled easily, it might be a better option
than the rtc-tools I couldn't find...

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
