I don't know what could be causing it, but I do know of a way to
overcome this. You could run an ntpd (network time protocol daemon) in
Linux and have MacOS synchronize its clock periodically. In MacOS, go to
Control Panels -> Date & time -> Use a Network Time Server -> Server
Options -> Network Time Server -> Edit List. Then, add an entry with
your Linux-side DNS name or IP number.
Under Linux, get and install xntpd from your preferred Linux download
site (or from your Linux installation CD, if it has this):
rpm -i xntpd-[version-number].rpm
Hope this will solve your problem.

I have actually seen it (was it on 0.9.41?), but I didn't care, and it
had gone away when I installed 0.9.49. But it might have been caused by
an incorrect timezone setting, either under Linux or under MacOS. Have
you checked that both timezone settings are correct?
