Still present. It has been bisected to:

commit 5e55aa8db085dad1aabb4574c73c23c7ae571e7b
Author: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

    sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards

    commit 5b7dba4ff834259a5623e03a565748704a8fe449 upstream

    sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards

    When sched_clock_cpu() couples the clocks between two cpus, it may
    increment scd->clock beyond the GTOD tick window that __update_sched_clock()
    uses to clamp the clock.  A later call to __update_sched_clock() may move
    the clock back to scd->tick_gtod + TICK_NSEC, violating the clock's
    monotonic property.

    This patch ensures that scd->clock will not be set backward.

Both 2.6.27.8 and 2.6.28-rc8 with that commit reverted work fine
(well, at least they failed to show the bug so far).
