Do you think the docs could highlight this please?  I guess it's obvious 
once you know, but my initial config was using both rtcfile and hwclock 
(one is distro supplied, the other seemed like a good idea...).  In 
practice the error isn't gross enough in my situation that the error was 
very obvious...

Some docs stating the obvious would be cool?
