oh. rtcwake works fine on RHEL so I assumed it was disabled in fedora on
ARM only. however I'm not even seeing that option on my RHEL 6.3 VM:

[root at jb-rhel63 ~]# grep -i wake /boot/config-2.6.32-279.*
[root at jb-rhel63 ~]#

So I may not understand what kernel config options are relevant to that
support.
