[Info-vax] Does anyone know if the unsupported TBO (time boost utility that "drifts" time forward or backward by adjusting ticklength) was every ported to the Itanium?

This may not be as non-portable as I thought. I looked at the source of LDDRIVER.MAR from digiater.nl, and it has lowlevel access to the hwrpb, and it appears to do the same operations for the Alpha and IA64.
I don't have a working Itanium yet, so I can't try. But it looks like it may be easier than I thought, but that may just be a statement from ignorance.
