This is what worked on my Zedboard:

../rtems-git/configure --target=arm-rtems4.12 \
--enable-rtemsbsp=xilinx_zynq_zedboard \
--enable-tests=samples \
--enable-cxx \
--enable-posix \
--prefix=/opt/rtems/bsps/4.12 BSP_ARM_A9MPCORE_PERIPHCLK=333333333U
make -j8 install

I still haven't tried a microzed yet, so I can't say whether the same clock setting would work.
