Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Observing
 {{{
 Tor NOTICE: Your system clock just jumped 43422 seconds forward; assuming
 established circuits no longer work.
 Tor NOTICE: Giving up on marked_for_close conn that's been flushing for
 15s (fd 356, type Socks, state open).
 }}}
 in tor 0.3.2.7-rc on Windows 7 after hibernation.
 Does the second message mean the system clock is not monotonic (and
 harmless)?
