Public bug reported:
* What cpu model : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5620 @ 2.40GHz
* What kvm version you are using. : qemu-kvm-0.12.3
* The host kernel version : 2.6.32-30-server
* What host kernel arch you are using (i386 or x86_64) : x86_64
* What guest you are using, including OS type: Windows 2008 Enterprise x86_64
* The qemu command line you are using to start the guest : /usr/bin/kvm -S -M

* Whether the problem goes away if using the -no-kvm-irqchip or -no-kvm-pit
switch. : Unable to test
* Whether the problem also appears with the -no-kvm switch. : Unable to test
Host time zone: EDT Guest time zone: PDT
Steps to reproduce:
1) Set time zone to (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada) on guest
2) Power off Windows 2008 Enterprise x86_64 guest completely. Ensure the kvm
process exits.
3) Power on Windows 2008 Enterprise x86_64 guest using virsh start <domain>
4) Server will show EDT time but have the time zone still set to (GMT-08:00)
Pacific Time (US & Canada).
Syncing the time after stopping and starting the kvm process using
Windows "Internet Time" ntp time sync will sync the time to the correct
PDT time.
Doing a reboot from within the guest's operating system where kvm does
not exit will not cause the timezone shift to happen.
