So for the sake of other peoples' nerves also facing this problem, the
solution was to add "divider=10" as a kernel boot parameter.
There is an good post about this problem here:

and this also leads to this document for VMWare giving an indication of
what the suggested parameters for various distributions are:

Did you not try the clocksource=kvm-clock? Or do you not have a new
enough kernel (2.6.27+)?

No, unfortunately Centos 5.4 comes with a 2.6.18 kernel (though with
many backports from newer versions).
% uname -r
2.6.18-164.6.1.el5.centos.plusPAE
% cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
kvm-clock
