I had a simlare problem with Gentoo, that time was added randomly each bootup.
in my /etc/init.d/clock there was the following line:
errstr="$(/sbin/hwclock --adjust ${myopts} 2>&1 >/dev/null)"
This made that the clock could be 5 minutes to two hours wrong, so I did
comment it out, and now I haven't had a single problem with time at all.
