Sort of...

Time in a VM is a relative thing...  The problem is that the timer
interrupt is virtual.  It is not locked in step with an oscillator.

The kernel tries to figure out these missed/late interrupts and make
adjustments.  The NTP daemon thinks the local clock is going haywire.

Add "tinker panic 0" to your VM ntpd instance.
