With an oscilloscope measuring the period length. This is probably not
very exact, but the current values are way off. We had 350KHz instead
of 380KHz (best possible divider) on an i.MX53. Funny enough some
divider values really match the ones in the datasheet.

BTW I'm pretty sure the input frequency to the core is calculated
correctly as it's the same clock that also drives the timer.

The clock is derived from an internal SoC clock, I don't think this can
be influenced that much by external components. I did not test different
boards, but two board with different SoCs.

Let's see what the IC guys tell us.
