$ date
Sat Dec 15 00:11:07 GMT 2001
$ date -u
Sat Dec 15 00:11:30 UTC 2001
(I live in England, we're not currently on British Summer Time, so
current local time == GMT == UTC.)
The TZ environment variable doesn't appear to be set. Is there likely to be another
timezone setting somewhere?

It's currently set to UTC, but I've just changed it to Europe/London. (And, having
restarted evolution it's still behaving the same.)

Both gave
Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
wombat didn't exit when I closed evolution, and when I restarted it it
gave
wombat-pcs-Message: cal_notify_categories_changed(): Could not
notify the listener about the current set of categories

(Interesting note: I started composing this, and while typing my lines wrapped
automatically; I did File/Send Later, and now that I've reopened it they're not
wrapping while I type.)
