Massive clock drift on Cobalt Raq2 after upgrade to 2.6.18-1-r5k-cobalt

Dear MIPS hackers,

The subject line pretty much says it all: between yesterday morning and
both my system clock and my uptime increased by about 2 days while only
10 hours actually elapsed... I was previously using kernel
2.4.27-r5k-cobalt (also from Debian) and the clock worked fine.

Maybe this is related to the following:

kilimandjaro:~# zgrep CONFIG_HZ= /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_HZ=250
kilimandjaro:~# grep periodic_freq /proc/driver/rtc
periodic_freq   : 1024

which from my ignorant POV would mean that the clock runs about 5 times
too fast?

How do I go about correcting the problem? I upgraded the kernel without
powering off, should I power-cycle now?

Many thanks in advance from a few days in the future :-)
