OK, this is indeed a genuine bug.
Thank you John, for pointing it out.

Hi Wolfgang,
Many thanks to you all for SMSQmulator. Brilliant job!
SMSQmulator seems to work very well, using the boot supplied, or my QPC2 boot
to start it. The only problems with my QPC2 boot were trivial - no
QPC_SYNCSCRAP (!##!) and menu_rext must be a non-QPC2 version.

No worries, you are very welcome.
IIRC, Java gets the system time from the OS, so it shouldn't matter how
the time is set by the OS (I use ntp, too ).

I can confirm that for V1.01 of SMSQmulator the SMSQ/E time matches
the XP Pro time.

QDC should run in DOSBOX. I don't know if DOSBOX can address the USB
floppy. It might just be a simple MOUNT command.
If you have Cygwin installed, then dd can be used for reading both 720k
