IIRC, if you run this at shell:
getconf -a  | grep TCK

you will get (in x86 32 bit):
CLK_TCK                            100

It means to me that 100 is assumed as "known value in user space".
However, in reality, the real timer precision is based upon real HZ
value in kernel.

Regarding your "broken" HZ, i guess it is more a user space issue
rather than kernel space. I check "man sysconf" and "man getconf", and
I got impression that it is a value either stated in one of glibc
headers or kernel headers.....
