I regularly get "microuptime() went backwards" warnings on my desktop box. The funny thing about them is that the reported timevals have the same seconds part, but the microseconds part of the second timeval is so large that it's wrapped around to a negative number (causing the signed comparison to report that it went backwards). This suggests that the current process has been running uninterrupted for several seconds, which seems unlikely - or that the timecounter was adjusted upwards while the process was running (could ntp cause that?)
