Try bumping the timeouts in forward_hardclock() and forward_statclock() in
mp_machdep.c. I'm currently overhauling the clock stuff so that we don't need
these timeouts. The problem is that these timeouts are CPU speed sensitive, so
while they might be fine for a PPro 200, they are far too short for a P3 600.
