On the 9thDec - date and hwclock changed from displaying the same time to
the hwclock being correct BUT date showing a time 13 hours ahead of my
current local time. Only on my mini2440s running either the 2012.12
Pengutronix BSP or the 2013.09 version   

Now, 13 hours is the difference between NZDT and UTC, but UTC should read 13
hours behind NZDT ... if anything.

I get around this little problem by adding a line in /etc/init.d/startup

   hwclock --hctosys

so that every time the machine reboots they are "synchronised".
 
I have read that date can sometimes get confused about what to correctly
display.  Seeing as my other Linux machines display date and hwclock
properly, both mini2440s show the same problem I can only conclude that this
is something to do with the files that date uses.

Any suggestions to where I should look?

Thanks,
Dave
