pitti: I hit this last night after debugging suspend/resume with the sysfs 
trick to store magic data in the RTC. Upon resuming the laptop clock was 
obviously full of non-clock data, and was interpreted as somewhen around 2016. 
Any sudo operation in an existing pty refused to do anything because the 
timestamps were too far in the future.
Opening a new pty allowed me sudo access from there, which I could reset the 
clock with, using ntpdate.
