What is wrong with NutClockGet()?
With mixing two libraries, you get the errors of both libraries.

We could start searching the list with index 0 and so waste some cycles. But
is that really worth the effort? Some bootloader or part of the user program
may have set xPRE to a none-zero value for no division. So the library
must cope with any allowed value.

I consider prepending NUT to the ENABLE/DISABLE keywords in the habit of
having NUT specific keyword. What other keywords collide with the ST
libraries?  That way all these keywords can be fixed in one changeset.

Please consider. You can look at the history that way.

Really? If it does not work, send in private mail.
