It's an issue that some people (including myself) have encountered
before with OpenNTPD (look here:
<http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-05/msg00160.html>).

Both OpenNTPD and NTPD keep the dom0 clock accurate, but only NTPD
updates it so that domU clocks are accurate.  Try NTPD and you'll notice
any domU's instantly sync back with the dom0 clock.
