sysUpTime question

looks like the implementation of sysUpTime actually returns
the time passed since the snmp daemon has started:

1. why not return the real system uptime ? (as the MIB name suggests)
2. out specific case:

when our system boots, the time is 'Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 UTC 1970',
and this is the system time when the snmp starts,
but after a short while, we run query the time server, which
updates the clock to the real time, now sysUpTime returns
really wrong results (like 158 days, for example)

is there a standard solution for this ?
(we try to avoid patching)
