When you boot into Windows, it will attempt to set the CMOS time to
local time by syncing to time-servers out on the 'Net. When you boot
back into FreeBSD, and you've got the system set up to use CMOS at
UTC, you will see the time lurch. Your options are to set up FreeBSD
to use CMOS at local time or to ntpdate-sync at startup to NTP servers
on the 'Net.
