.2/3 boards usually do not have a battery
to backup a realtime clock. Their clocks always start at 0 when
powered up, and 0 is the epoch, Jan. 1 1970. A mechanism like
ntpd -s is needed for those boards.
The ALIX.1B/C do have a battery, btw.

The nmeaattach command has been removed in -current, so has the

Please note that ldattach(8) has a slightly different synopsis than
