There's actually a kernel modul that does exactly that
(give back 'incorrect' times whne the syscall is made
by certain processes). No, gnome isn't crippled, but 
the now defunct Linux version of FrameMaker stopped
working on January 1st. I had the option to move
erverything back to the old Mac LCII for one week
of finishing work or to tweak with my kernel ...
