Comment (by alnsn):

 Is clock jump my local problem or a problem in Tor’s code?

 I’m asking because I have two very similar setups: both are tor 0.3.2.10
 on NetBSD 8.0, running with ntpd but one runs in a virtual box and clock
 jumps can be insane. It’s so bad, ntpd doesn’t always cope with jumps and
 I had to add a cronjob to synchronise clocks. The puzzling part if that I
 don’t see these asserts on that box, I see them on a stable box.
