I've noticed this too on 45xx hardware. I'm sure it didn't happen
in the past, but I don't recall whether it started after a BIOS
update or after a boot loader update.

If it helps someone with more knowledge of comBIOS to identify
the problem, this timer uses the get RTC time/date calls (Int 1A,
AH=02 and AH=04).
