Funny you should say that....

Please don't all download it at once, but there's a preview avilable at:

so

If you're running NTP in your local domain you should enable
independent_wallclock 

e.g. echo 1 > /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock or put
independent_wallclock=1 on your kernel command line. [NB: someone should
document the kernel config option]

I'll wager that this is your problem. Hmm, that's a pretty nasty failure
mode. Without doing something gross and intercepting the adjtimex
syscall there's not a lot we can do about it.
