I didn't try that.  The change I tried seemed reasonable.  I might have 
fatfingered something.  It takes just long enough to try something that I 
didn't go into the try-lots-of-things mode.  (It required typing stuff at 
Open Firmware, and I actually have to type rather than cut-paste, and then 
booting and waiting 5 or 6 minutes until ntpd prints an error message.)  I'm 
hoping I'll figure out why I was wrong and/or what I should have done.

Or both kernels are correct and the numbers provided by Open Firmware are 
wrong.
