I've had the same problem, but I have not had a chance to investigate the
cause.  If I remember correctly, the problem started when I installed
DFBSD 1.1-CURRENT.  When I was using DFBSD 1.0, there was no problem with
the kernel returning the correct time -- or at least I never noticed it.
I have a fairly standard Intel processor, so I don't believe it is a
hardware problem.

p.s. Thank you to all of those who are working on DFBSD, it's awesome.
