Wow!
As a temporary fix you can put `netdate <list of hosts> ; clock -w`
in your `/etc/ppp/ip-up' if you've a ppp link to the world, or run
it from cron if you're on the net permanently.

I would probably write a small shell script to sit in background and
check the time every, say, minute, and log the output of `ps` if 
current time < last ...
