Linking the RTC device state to the PIIX does not belong into the
common path that is shared with the isapc. QEMU crashes otherwise.

Does isapc actually work for you? I tried to write a qemu-test test
case (attached below) to help prevent future regressions. I can
reproduce your SEGV but with your patch applied, I get no output (not
even the BIOS runs).
Here's the command line. Even a simple 'qemu-system-x86_64 -M isapc'
reproduces it:
/home/anthony/build/qemu/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -kernel
bin/vmlinuz-3.0 -initrd .tmp-3510/initramfs-3510.img.gz -append
console=ttyS0 seed=24689 -M isapc -pidfile .tmp-3510/pidfile-3510.pid

You need to update seabios to the last release at least (should have
been done much earlier), and it only works for KVM (as that mode ignores
some ROM write protections where seabios obviously has some troubles
with).
