Well, that seems to have done it! After cleaning up all the remaining
xen cruft from the system, and rebooting last night, the clock seems to
be rock-solid today. I guess the moral is if you have any of the xen
virtualisation libraries or services enabled, you need to be running the
xen kernel. I expect the reverse may also be true.
