Ah, yeah, my powerPC machine *always* claims that it needs to correct the time on a standard bootup -- even if it had just rebooted. It generally claims to be off by around 360 seconds. I can't say for sure, since that line from ntpdate doesn't seem to get saved anywhere, but for the last few reboots (which I just did) it's been around 366-367 seconds. I have been meaning to check what the story is with that time-warp. It figures that the first time this time-warp would cause a problem for me would be after switching to a new branch-tag... This failure didn't pop up the other 20+ times I've rebuilt my powerPC system! Okay, that is probably the issue.
