I've installed it and my system hasn't caught on fire yet. :) (I also have
my system clock set in UTC like any sensible person, and haven't rebooted,
so it's not much of a test so far.)
Should /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh be stripped down to be a no-op on 'start',
since there's no longer any reason to call it with this argument?
