Thanks, that was it!  Just opened the laptop after being slept overnight
on the new kernel - its on time! (well almost, now ive gotta fix (a
minute or so of) the hwclock drift I upset after all the fiddling I did)

Just a note that the changelog implies its an acpi fix, and this is on a
dell laptop (broken acpi) with the kernel running apm, no acpi compiled
in.

On a server I am also seeing time jumps in some of the monitor scripts -
probably the same cause, so its not just laptops that will benefit.
