Don't need an x-ray to know that there's a 32.768 kHz crystal in the
piggyback module, along with the battery. I don't know where the battery
backup supervisor circuit is.

Pretty much. I mod'd one by adding a battery backup supervisor, lifting a
pin, and sucking +5 from the mobo. I don't like it--it's too ugly, in
comparison.
