Apart from the ntp vs. openvm-tools thing, do you have an idea what "for weeks"  means in more detail?  Can you check based on last/daily mails/.. how many days it was since last reboot to a) see if it's close to a integer wrap-around or b) to give anyone who wants to reproduce this maybe a clue on how long they'll have to wait?  For that matter, is it a stock 9.0 or your own kernel?  What other modules are loaded?
