Old description:
Every nightly build I've tried the past few weeks results in Haiku unable
to read or write to the system clock accurately.
The following steps for me today resulted in Haiku reporting back a
current date/time of 4/8/61 2:12 PM.
1. Booting the system cold into Haiku.
2. Connecting to WiFi and and initiating a network time synch at
approximately 1:08 pm.
3. Rebooting back into Haiku, via the reboot option in the Deskbar menu.
Reproducible on a Thinkpad X230 and X230T, both running the Coreboot
distribution known as Skulls.

The X230T is running the latest release of Skulls. Which is based on
based on coreboot commit 555419f356 and SeaBIOS 1.12.1
GNU/Linux , FreeBSD, NetBSD and Windows 10 all have never had issues with
the system clock on either laptop.
