While my clock isn't running at quarter speed, it IS rather off since
updating to -CURRENT from an April-ish RELENG_5.  The skew is bigger
than ntpd is willing to counteract, so it keeps having to step:

Jul  7 17:01:24 mortis ntpd[8334]: time reset +0.488365 s
Jul  7 17:21:01 mortis ntpd[8334]: time reset +1.720979 s
Jul  7 17:38:26 mortis ntpd[8334]: time reset +0.987037 s
Jul  7 17:55:49 mortis ntpd[8334]: time reset +1.350396 s
Jul  7 18:14:19 mortis ntpd[8334]: time reset +0.951141 s
Jul  7 18:29:31 mortis ntpd[8334]: time reset +0.702673 s
Jul  7 18:50:02 mortis ntpd[8334]: time reset +1.089376 s

That's kinda more often than you'd expect, y'know?

This is a 2-proc SMP PPro, with source as of...  maybe 10 or so hours
before the build.
