(!) timer drift -- spun N minutes

This can be caused by one of several reasons.

- Your bot could have been swapped out of memory for a while, or for
some reason the computer could have stopped letting the bot run. Once
a minute, Eggdrop does a few maintenance things, including counting
down any active Tcl timers. If for some reason, several minutes pass
without Eggdrop being able to do this, it logs this message to let
you know what happened. It's generally a bad thing, because it means
that the system your bot is on is very busy, and the bot can hardly
keep track of the channel very well when it gets swapped out for
minutes at a time.

- On some systems (at least Linux), if the DNS your bot is using to
lookup hostnames is broken and *very* slow in responding (this can
occur if the DNS server's uplink doesn't exist), then you will get
4-5 minute timer drifts continuously. This can be fixed by loading
the dns module.

- The clock on your machine has just been changed. It may have been
running behind by several minutes and was just corrected.
