So, I was noticing that my clock is drifting behind rather rapidly.

# date

# sleep 60
# date

What's really odd is, "sleep 60" slept for, so far as I can tell, just about
exactly 60 seconds.

I am a bit light on explanations of this one.  I am not running ntp, and have
never previously needed it.  I don't know immediately of any significant
changes in my environment.  Running -current:

NetBSD vash.cel.plethora.net 4.99.1 NetBSD 4.99.1 (VASH) #0: Tue Aug 15 16:26:45 CDT 2006 seebs@vash.cel.plethora.net:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/VASH i386

will update and see what happens.  But I figure this one's weird enough to
ask about.
