Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment:

The wait loop in Condition.wait() has disappeared under 3.2 (we use builtin 
lock-with-timeout primitives instead).

Overall, I don't think this issue is very important. Changing the system time 
*backwards* can cause all kinds of issues in daemons and other long-running 
programs, which generally assume a monotonous time function. Also, it could be 
disputed what the preferred semantics are (observe "real" time or observe the 
computer clock), and the answer is probably application-specific.
