I have no problem here, the guests' (XP, 2003, 2008, Vista, 7...) clocks 
are almost as accurate as host's one.

The facts you are describing are close to the behavior of Windows clock 
while it is being synchronized. Depending on the sign of the difference 
between local clock and reference clock, Windows slows down/speeds up 
its clock by 2.

You could have a look at system messages, it can be invoked by a right 
click on "My Computer" -> "Manage". Time service used to output some 
message during the synchro.
