So what happens on a PC running just e.g. FreeBSD? Is the BIOS clock always kept in UTC? Or local time?

I'm interested to know what will happen when I next reboot my FreeBSD/GPS stratum 1 server, which has been up since the end of January when we were on winter time (i.e. UTC here)!
FreeBSD will work with either convention, although if the machine is dedicated to running FreeBSD, keeping the BIOS clock set to UTC is considered preferable.

Reading the tzsetup(8) and adjkerntz(8) manpages should provide useful
information on how to set the time zone correctly.
