Hah! I thought it had to be some sort of locale effect, but I failed
to think of that as a contributor :-(. My installation does have
/etc/localtime, and removing it duplicates Tomas' syndrome.
I also find that if I add "-gmt 1" to the clock invocation, it's happy
with or without /etc/localtime. So I think we should modify the test
case to use that to reduce its environmental sensitivity. Will
go make it so.
