[gentoo-user] My machine wakes up from hibernation in GMT time !?!?

[Walter Dnes]

  I'm in Canada/Eastern timezone.  For some reason, my machine seems to
come up in GMT when waking up from hibernation.  This started happening
a week or two ago.  I do not think this is related to my conversion and
re-install from 32-bit to 64-bit.  I worked OK for a while.  Only
recently did it start waking up with the clock 5 hours ahead of Eastern
Standard (i.e. GMT).  Since the time change this past Sunday, it's been
waking up 4 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight.  It definitely looks like
it's coming up in GMT.  I reset it to Eastern time, but after
hibernation and wakeup, it comes up GMT.  I don't know why.  Any ideas?
Here are the contents of...

/etc/hibernate/hibernate.conf
/etc/timezone
/etc/conf.d/hwclock

...a sanity-check on /etc/local/timezone

...my script to manually sync my machine clock.

Are you using OpenRC?
If so, do you have the hwclock init script set to run at boot?

  Yes and yes.  "/sbin/rc-update show boot" shows it.  "rc-status boot"
also shows it.

  A tangentaial question.  "rc-status" shows service "netmount" stopped.
Is it really needed?  I'm not doing NFS or netboot.

Do you have CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS set on your kernel?
If so it's because you're using localtime and the kernel sets it to UTC.
Either disable that option or if you need localtime for windows you can also
set windows to use UTC.

  No Windows on this machine.  I do keep 2 kernels, and select via lilo.
This is an insurance policy in case a kernel update goes didastrously
wrong; i.e. it's unbootable.  I just did an update, which pulled in a
new kernel.  I updated to it, and it now comes up OK, both from "reboot"
and from hibernate-to-disk followed by restore-from-disk.  I don't
understand...

1) why it stopped working properly for a while
2) why it's working properly now

  Here's what I have in my .config in both the current linux-3.18.7-gentoo
and the previous linux-3.17.8-gentoo-r1

CONFIG_RTC_LIB=y
CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=y
# CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS is not set
CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC=y
CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE="rtc0"
# CONFIG_RTC_DEBUG is not set
