I've never seen this behavior using Emu48, but I also know that clock-related functions aren't the same due to the same point that Han made -- namely, that Emu48 uses your computer's system clock as a reference.

I don't know that it's related, but I do know that after extensive testing I've never seen Emu48 report a subsequent time which steps backward, which is something that a real 49g+/50g will do quite easily when checked frequently enough to witness it (eg. running Saturn code).

I'm still curious as to how often people experience these ghost power-ups. I'd like to have some ballpark for how long I need to inconvenience myself while checking for this. Pressing an extra key at power-up isn't too bad, but I'm sure it will get old quickly.
