Fwiw, it was me, how experiences this issue.
After the switch from systz to hctosys in /lib/udev/hwclock-set, my
hardware clock is no longer properly set under systemd.

Afaics, this is because systemd set's the clock internally and doesn't
care for the flag file that is created by hwclock-set.
Under sysvinit, I don't encounter this problem.

When switching hwclock-set back to systz, it works properly for both
systemd and sysvinit.
