I think that pv_ops domU kernels pick up Xen's wallclock at boot time, but
won't listen for updates thereafter. So if you ran a non-pv_ops domU, you'd
probably find that its wallclock would be correctly updated after S3. Cc'ing
Jeremy as he'll be able to confirm this. I think his answer will be that you
should run ntp in every guest, but I'm not sure how that will react to
unexpected warps in time.
