[ts-7000] TS-7800 RTC problem

The time obtained from RTC by rtc7800 makes random jumps. To find out
more details I added following to crontab:

0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /usr/local/bin/rtc7800; date >> /var/log/rtc.log

Interesting parts of rtc.log:

Mon Mar 10 15:30:12 CET 2008
Mon Mar 10 15:40:05 CET 2008
Mon Mar 10 15:50:04 CET 2008
Thu Mar 13 20:00:06 CET 2008   (+ 76 h)

Thu Mar 13 19:50:12 CET 2008
Tue Mar 11 12:00:12 CET 2008   (- 50 h)

After correction (ntpdate, rtc7800 -s)
Tue Mar 11 11:20:05 CET 2008
Tue Mar 11 11:30:05 CET 2008
Tue Mar 11 11:40:05 CET 2008
Tue Mar 11 11:50:04 CET 2008
Fri Mar 14 20:00:05 CET 2008   (+ 80 h)

There was no reboot during the test.

I'm booting the factory preloaded Debian from on-boad flash.
I use the current version of rtc7800 from ts's ftp site.

Because I'm new to ts systems may be I'm doing something wrong.

Thank you for any hints.
