Thanks, though I don't think it made it there.  I'm also not sure it's 
completely limited to KVM, though that is the only running system I am 
currently seeing the problem on.  I also see clock jumps during anaconda 
installs on physical hardware and apparently they have been present since at 
least F11.  Might be unrelated though.

I'm really at a loss of how to debug this though.
