Hi all,

Has anyone else noticed that gettimeofday seems to spit out utterly
bogus values every once in a while, so that time apparently goes
backwards? I've seen this on an Athlon64 X2 running 2.6.13, a P4 with HT
running 2.6.12, and two P4s w/o HT running 2.6.12. All were running FC3
or FC4, but some cursory reading on the Internet would appear to confirm
this as a general kernel bug of some sort.

Does anyone have a good workaround? This is utterly killing some latency
testing I'm doing, since I can't trust the results.
