clockspeed issues on NetBSD/sparc64

Hi, first off, I realize it was a bit of a stretch to expect
clockspeed to compile and work on a sparc machine running NetBSD, but
I thought I'd give it a shot anyway. The compile bombed. I'd like to
note at this point that clockspeed built and installed fine on the
same version of NetBSD/i386 - so I suspect it is an architecture issue
(since I'm not sure whether the NetBSD kernel lets userland see %tick,
as Solaris does)

Anyway, on to the build output, in case it is of any help:

I looked at where it bombed first in clockspeed.c, and it appears to
be dying because it doesn't have RDTSC or GETHR. This makes sense; I'm
guessing GETHR is what it uses on non-i386 platforms, if available?

In any case, clockspeed.c won't build - so my original plan of getting
clockspeed adjusted properly on the i386 machine and running taiclockd
to sync the Ultra won't work. Should I just continue to use NTP on the
UltraSPARC, and then once clockspeed has had it's few months to
adjust, run ntpd on the i386 machine and sync the ultra that way?

Or, should I edit the Makefile/source so that it compiles everything
but clockspeed, and do it that way? (I know modifying the source is
generally discouraged; this is why I'm looking for other ideas.)

If there is any more information that would help, I'll be happy to provide it.

Thanks,
-Sean
