 Method:

  * start OpenFirmware and stop at ok prompt,

  * query the oscillator stop flag of the idt1338 chip,
 {{{
 dev /rtc 7 rtc@ 20 and .
 }}}
  and expect result ''20'', which means the bit is set,

  * clear the bit,
 {{{
 7 rtc@ 20 xor 7 rtc!
 }}}

  * check the bit,
 {{{
 7 rtc@ 20 and .
 }}}
  and expect result ''0'', which means the bit is cleared,

  * reboot with
 {{{
 reboot
 }}}
  and again obtain the ok prompt,

  * check the bit,
 {{{
 dev /rtc 7 rtc@ 20 and .
 }}}
  and expect result ''0'', which means the RTC oscillator was not stopped
 by the reboot, a nominal finding,

  * power off with
 {{{
 power-off
 }}}
  then use the power button to turn the laptop back on,

  * check the bit,
 {{{
 dev /rtc 7 rtc@ 20 and .
 }}}

 Expected result: 0.

 Observed result: 20, an abnormal finding indicating that the RTC
 oscillator was stopped by the power cycle.
