Smells like configuration mixups between what is in
/etc/sysconfig/clock and /etc/adjtime.  Check 'man hwclock' about
'--localtime' flag for a description what and when hwclock will be
using. udev rules were supposedly running 'hwclock --hctosys' on
a startup.

Especially if this is a laptop which will travel to different time
zones then using local time for a system clock is getting old pretty
quickly.
