Have many other people been affected by this? ZODB could be changed to=20
validate the system clock by comparing it to the time of the last=20
transaction. If the difference is longer than some threshold (4 weeks fee=
ls=20
about right) them it would conclude that it is more likely that the syste=
m=20
clock is wrong, and refuse to issue any new timestamps at the current tim=
e=20
without external confirmation.
