Capistrano behaves very badly if any `cap` commands happen from a system that has an incorrect clock.

Capistrano should use the clock for the deploying system so that if two `cap` commands happen in rapid succession from two different system (one with an incorrect clock) things will work right.

This came up with https://github.com/carlhuda/bundler/issues/1142 as an example.

Rollbacks won't work right, for example, if the deploying systems have skewed clocks.
