Yup.Many returns on 'clock dithering' too. This could have saved us some blood 
and sweat at a critical time (EMI pre-screening) a few years back on a new 
product but the digi-whizes had not incorporated that feature in their design

Also known as "spread spectrum clocking" (a nice search-engine term).
Lots of PLLs on the market advertise this feature.  USB 3.0 uses it on
the high-speed conductors to avoid the need for shielded cables.
