Is there any reason why there should be any clock drift, when the
guest is using a non-PIT clock?

I'm probably being naive, but with 32-bit or 64-bit HPET counters
available to the guest, and accurate values from the CMOS clock
emulation, I don't see why drift would accumulate over the long term
relative to the host clock.
