Subject:        Mac clock gains time

Shortly after I got my Mac I noticed that its clock was gaining a lot
of time.  The first few times this happened I figured I had done
something wrong in setting the time and just reset it.  Eventually I
decided something was wrong.  The clock was gaining time VERY fast, in
fact at something near a two to one ratio.  So I sat down to watch with
both the Alarm clock and Control panel on the desktop and the Control
panel active.  Lo and behold every few minutes the clock takes a big
leap forward!  Has anybody noticed this behaviour?  Is Apple aware of
the bug?
