If you follow the link above, you'll find the details.  It was January
last year.

It's easier than that: IIRC they're all in sys/kern, and you just need
to see what has changed significantly between 4.4BSD and 4.4BSD-Lite.
kern_clock.c is one of them.  From the SCCS logs:

  D 8.3   93/09/23 15:27:32       bostic  130     129     00021/00023/00474
  changes for 4.4BSD-Lite requested by USL

I looked for that string in all the SCCS files, but there were more
than 6 files, 38 to be exact.
