I tried defconfig the first time with no luck.

I really meant "make oldconfig": it runs the configuration script and just ask about new options.

Maybe "exact" isn't the right word. I started with that but ran it through menuconfig and just changed the revision from -lfs-7.6 to -lfs-7.9.

Ah, I see. I think that when doing that, the new options take automatically their default value (which might not be what you want).

Anyway, I think the options concerning the hardware clock are of the form *_RTC_*. You could try:
grep RTC /boot/config-xxx
and see if ther is something weird (and/or compare the output to that of the config file for 7.6).
