Has anyone found a solution to a linux guest under a linux host where the 
guest's clock ticks slowly
or quickly depending on different factors?

Take a look at VMware's timekeeping guide:

My Solution - NTP

AFAIK, there's no known solution..., (Here's hoping I'm wrong)

Yes, of course, I've already read gentoo forums, vmware site, gentoo-wiki, and 
googled a lot. I also
tried the NTP solution Ow Mun suggested, with no luck.

I have lots of clients behind an openvpn tunnel, and they're having issues 
connecting to pop3 and
smtp over the tunnel (I run the pop3/smtp services). :(

So, well, that's the current situation. The worse part is that it was working, 
but I don't want to
go back to vmware-workstation, vncserver, etc... I'm now using vmware-server, 
and connecting to it
with the remote-console, which is quite cool.

The solution that has worked for me is to ensure that the timer
frequency for the clock in the guest's kernel is set to 100HZ.

I'll try that, then!
