What does the BIOS setup screen say about the motherboard clock's idea of the time? I suspect what's happening is the motherboard clock is set in the future, you are formatting venti based on that time, and then later firing up timesync which interprets the RTC as local time. If your RTC is set to UTC and you're in the western hemisphere, the RTC clock will be ahead of your local time.

The venti message spits out two ctime values IIRC. One is the timestamp from when venti created the store, the other the block write time. date(1) will decipher the values, and tell the true story.
