It is indeed, but until we can see it happening we can only guess as to
what might actually cause it :(. My setups are almost 100% identical to
yours - CGI repos mostly used by one user (except that i use autosync
because i forget to push if i don't). i've been using Fossil daily for over
6 years and haven't seen this happen even once. Enough people have, though,
that it's obviously happening.

the fork in question is [a8cbddcfc3]. In the meantime I have closed it

i'm wondering if perhaps your server had "system event" and the clock was
skewed for a brief period. That's probably impossible to know for sure now.

It does indeed sound somewhat related.
