  Modified files:
    sys/kern             kern_time.c 
  Log:
  More secure clock management. Allow positive steps only once per second
  for as much as one second, but no more. Allows a miscreant to
  double-time march the clock, but no worse.
  
  XXX Unlike putting negative deltas in a while(1), performing small
  positive steps inside of a while(1) will return EPERM for the
  unpermitted ones. Repeated negative deltas are clamped without
  error (but the kernel does log a notice).
