alevt-date does this. It's in the alevt distribution.

alevt homepage:

alevt-date manpage:
http://goron.de/~froese/alevt/alevt-date.html

patch to alevt to work with ivtv (thanks to Duncan Webb!)
http://www.linuxowl.com/patches/alevt-1.6.1-ivtv.patch

alevt-date works here (PVR-350). It prints the time. I did not try it 
with the -set option.

Here it looks like the time captured by alevt-date is about 3-4 seconds 
to slow (manually compared to ntp-adjusted clock).
