Does the adjtime() system call still exist ? I could not find any
information about this system call in the 2.6.25 kernel source code.

Frequency adjustments made via the adjtimex() system call do affect
nanosleep() of course (via timex::freq and/or timex::tick). Stepwise
time adjustments, whether gradual or not, should not affect
nanosleep().
