I finally built a 3.12.6-rt9 without one of the patches (as outlined in 
the rt mailing list) and it boots. But on a boot I got a couple of 
Ooop'ses so all is not clean. I did try to suspend and awaken once and 
it went through the process with no apparent problems.

I'll run it for a bit more, maybe I could release to the testing 
repository if you are interested in giving it a try...
