Ahhm it happend again (well, actually it's the fifth time today, but this time
I _hopefully_ found something)

I made a new log: (check out bugzilla)
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10369

(direct link)
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=15542

so, this log was made from a _working_ machine over the serial
console... I put some _real_ "date" marks here and there... 
to explain a bit, how the time STALLS... (well, it seems like
it goes a bit backward and forward and backwards again...  it loops?!
whatever..!??!?!!)

just take a look at the jiffies (grep for them... it takes "minutes"
until jiffies+1 comes)

Maybe there's a "signed" problem somewhere in the timekeeping
code? Or does 2.6.25-rcX have a general problem with NTP-daemons
like chrony?

Regards,
	Chr.
