I ignored the reject since it was from an #include section - the build went fine. I am even able to use it successfully. Couple things -

Very happy to report that I no longer get those annoying - "losing some ticks ..." "your time source is unreliable or some driver is hogging interrupts" messages - Not sure what change in TOD subsystem cured it - or was it just the removal of the printk? ;) 

Sadly, it somehow feels noticeably slower than vanilla 2.6.12-rc5. Especially using X/KDE - It is surely usable but not snappy. I will do more research to find out exactly why - but before that is such as loss of snappiness possible due to the TOD changes?

Thanks
Parag
