Oh it is a problem, and most handle it very ungracefully, such as dovecot which just dies: http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards The issue is also most people are used to using rc.local or rc.* type scripts to spawn a daemon which leads to the next major sysadmin/developer problem with is handling error cases improperly or not at all.
