From 2b95eda726d565d4abe3cac045022d3141a11b23 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

UML's supposed nanosecond clock interacts badly with NTP when NTP
decides that the clock has drifted ahead and needs to be slowed down.
Slowing down the clock is done by decrementing the cycle-to-nanosecond
multiplier, which is 1.  Decrementing that gives you 0 and time is
stopped.

This is fixed by switching to a microsecond clock, with a multiplier
of 1000.
