Should also mention here machines that I have noticed this on were
syncronized with NTP & time was not fluctuating at the time of errors.
Once that I have mentioned before could be provoked by using screen or
tmux whereas not using either of them it would not happen. Login shell
non-Login shell ? pick your Brat!.

All I know is the environment disapears for one reason or another but I
am fairly confident it does not have anything to do with adjkerntz or
localtime.
