Apparently, you never received Lennart's reply on your original mail.
Below, you can find his original comment.

Quoting Lennart:
----------------

I am not really convinced that we really should try to make this
work. rtc-in-local-time has so many issues, it really doesn't stop
here. If people make use of this, then this is what they get really,
and I am not sure we really should work around it. I mean, systemd
really isn't the only component which might query the clock this
early, in the initrd there might be a ton of other components too, and
it's not realistic to add similar kludges to them all.

In general: rtc-in-local-time is a compatibility hack, and we only
want to support it to the minimal level necessary for compatibility,
but not more. The proper fix for this problem I guess is to use
rtc-in-utc instead!

Sorry if that's disappointing,

Lennart
