Did you maybe change this last one after your last reboot?  Because 
then the system time won't have changed accordingly.  Do a 'hwclock 
-hctosys' to set the system time from the hardware clock.

Is the clock initscript run?  Check with 'rc-update -s'.  If it is, 
try removing it from the startup sequence, see if that solves it.

Is date maybe aliased?  Check with 'type date'.
