Not really, the real time clock is a clock, it is supposed to keep the
time always moving forward in the most accurate way possible, ideally it
would keep in sync with a worldwide accepted time reference, UTC.

with the localtime concept itself, it was broken from the start, mucking
about with the time source is a bad idea and I can understand perfectly
why it's use is discouraged.
