clock jump in 0.2.0.23-rc, too

     It appears that the "clock jump" problem does persist into 0.2.0.23-rc.
Here are the notice-level log messages since I started up the new version
this afternoon:

Mar 31 15:18:56.468 [notice] Tor 0.2.0.23-rc (r14173) opening log file.
Mar 31 15:18:56.468 [warn] Can't log to stdout with RunAsDaemon set; skipping stdout
Mar 31 15:18:56.756 [notice] Your Tor server's identity key fingerprint is 'MYCROFTsOtherChild 0232 2050 5A55 0D6F DF0C 20FF 7C48 E66B A06A 49A6'
Mar 31 15:19:04.921 [notice] We now have enough directory information to build circuits.
Mar 31 15:19:05.311 [warn] Nickname list includes 'yourd0f670b45a' which isn't a known router.
Mar 31 15:19:11.443 [notice] Self-testing indicates your ORPort is reachable from the outside. Excellent. Publishing server descriptor.
Mar 31 15:19:15.489 [notice] Tor has successfully opened a circuit. Looks like client functionality is working.

Mar 31 15:21:25.926 [notice] Performing bandwidth self-test...done.

     [At this point, I SIGHUPped tor to reload torrc with "ExcludeNodes abutor"
added.]

Mar 31 16:12:18.016 [notice] Received reload signal (hup). Reloading config.
Mar 31 16:12:18.020 [notice] Tor 0.2.0.23-rc (r14173) opening log file.
Mar 31 16:12:18.021 [warn] Can't log to stdout with RunAsDaemon set; skipping stdout
Mar 31 16:12:18.021 [warn] Can't log to stdout with RunAsDaemon set; skipping stdout
Mar 31 16:42:39.312 [warn] Nickname list includes 'yourd0f670b45a' which isn't a known router.
Mar 31 22:30:27.110 [warn] Your system clock just jumped 101 seconds forward; assuming established circuits no longer work.

     So I now have one example of the same problem with the new release
candidate that was present in 0.2.0.22-rc.
     Does anyone have any ideas/thoughts/suggestions?  Are any others running
tor under FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE or any other FreeBSD release seeing these
messages?
