True, but no mention for upgrading people who would probably:

1) See no note about the upgrade and think "It worked before so I don't need
to change it"

2) See the web page say hh:mm:ss, look at the screen and see hh:mm and say,
"Yes, that looks correct" without seeing the difference

3) See no obvious error message in the logs saying that time/date is
incorrectly formatted, only that the time is reset to 00:00:00 and only if
they turn on extra debugging

Still I am happy that it is working again, the main point of my spiel was
for people google-searching for similar problems in the future
