I've also been using the AT91SAM7S and AT91SAM7X in real projects and
have not had problems with the timer. Please could you explain what
you see wrong? Maybe you have a pointer to some documentation? 

Looking at page 105 of doc6175.pdf, it shows that the PIT is driven by
MCK/16.

I moved house recently, so my AT91SAM7SEK development board is still
packed away in a box somewhere. Could you run the clocktruth test
program and see if that shows a problem. Without your patch you would
expect it to "tick" at twice the expected rate.

       Thanks
