After further googling I discovered that the ntp servers just report
UTC time. It is up to my computers to translate that to local time.

I used ntpq -p to verify on both computers that they see the ntp
servers. And the ...restart command works without error on both
computers, so the computers are talking to the servers. And both
computers are set to Los Angeles time.

And just now I used the date command and discovered that both computers
think that the time is 4:38. Yet the clock in the Xfce panel says it is
5:38. Guess we now know where the bug is. :)

I'm off to rag on the devs at the Xfce forum. :)
