before sending a bug report to Debian, i prefer ask you about this
problem. I've got a difference between the system time and the kernel

I'm using ntp too (version 4.2.0).

did your HW clock desync with actual time? Did you reboot last time?
what's in your /etc/adjtime ?

node:~# date; ps faux | grep 'ps';date

ps show start times as if commands were launched 18 minutes earlier !?!

It may be caused by system clock desynced with current time and NTP fixing
the time. But I only guess
