And it came to pass that Andreas Tobler proclaimed:

Thanks for your help, Andreas.  This indeed did the trick:

    echo "/sbin/clock -s" > /sbin/hwclock
    chmod +x /sbin/hwclock

However, I found that I needed to perform 'clock -a' first (-a sets the CMOS
clock, while in the process adjusting for systematic error; it then writes
back to the CMOS).  Otherwise my clock would have remained four hours behind
local time.

Thanks again!
