I didn't try that, but I bisected it in the meantime which lead to:

commit 64ce4c2f5252f25798117fa80a027993163d6d84
Author: John Stultz <johnstul@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Thu Mar 11 14:04:47 2010 -0800

    time: Clean up warp_clock()

    warp_clock() currently accesses timekeeping internal state directly, which
    is unnecessary.  Convert it to use the proper timekeeping interfaces.

So I don't think it's an hpet issue. :-)

I'm now going to revert that commit and see what happens.

Thanks,
