But the fact that running /sbin/hwclock produces "select() to
/dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed out" would seem to indicate
that there's a problem with interaction between the system and the
hardware clock.

As far as time-zone settings, in my case at least, /etc/timezone
has Asia/Tokyo. But I see that /etc/default/rcS has UTC=no. I
guess I ought to change that to UTC=yes.
