Say
set debug.acpi.disable="timer"
in the bootloader and see if you still get this. I've already got one
report of system time going twice as fast as it should; I'm unsure what's
going on here (I don't grok the timecounter code as well as I should, I
think)...
You could also try building a kernel with CLK_CALIBRATION_LOOP defined
and then booting with -v (without the timer disabled). This might be
instructive (I don't know for certain that it'll calibrate the ACPI
timer, since it may not have been probed yet).
Thanks!

... every activity meets with opposition, everyone who acts has his
rivals and unfortunately opponents also. But not because people want
to be opponents, rather because the tasks and relationships force
people to take different points of view. [Dr. Fritz Todt]
