Another idea has come to my mind...


pca(4) currently uses acquire_timer0(), which changes the timer
frequency directly, breaking finetimer(9). I am considering to
move acquire_timer0()s in pca(4) to finetimer(9), so that pca(4)
comes to work again. Furthermore, we can get rid of acquire_timer0()
and the related stuff in clkintr() to be much more simple than now.


Any comments?
