casper isn't touching the clock at boot time.
ntpdate is triggered by ifupdown which sets the clock to the right time. The 
timezone is going to be UTC until a location is selected in ubiquity at which 
point the clock will change to reflect the timezone change.

I think the current behaviour is correct, though it indeed could be
slightly improved by having NetworkManager parse the dhcp flag and
expose that to the desktop environment somehow.
