From my experience it does not happen often.

I did 20 games of Junior5 against Junior4.6 from positions that I decided in
2 minutes per game+15 seconds per move and Junior5 lost only one game on time on
my pentium200MMX.

I could reproduce this game.
The problem is that Junior5.0 "feels" a duty to finish the iteration before it
plays a move even if it is losing on time because of it.

Junior5.4 does not "feel" the same duty.
