I plan on changing to my 387 processor Real Soon Now, and will see if this goes away. Also, the process time elapsed is wacky, but not as wacky as the process start times would indicate. Another possible contributor to the problem - I'm using the /etc/.wall_cmos_clock option, and my boot logs complain about not being able to find a /etc/.adkerneltz (sp?) file. Perhaps the kernal is confused about what time is actually is wrt what the processes think the time is?
