Txwikinger is right in its explanations of my intentions for this bug report, 
it is for consistency with all others usages of hwclock command in the script 
(I'm sorry, I should have explain that in my report). It's not critical, and 
again less critical in this case because the flag is "--adjust" which not 
involve an important operation contrary to actions involved by "--set" or 
"--hctosys" flags.
I guessed that if the complete path was given for hwclock it was a precaution, 
and if developer of this script made this choice it may have a good raison to 
do that.
Normally, it can perfectly function without full path, but for the full path 
suppression suggested by Matt, maybe we should ensure that the choice of using 
full path had no particular goal which may a precaution policy (to not rely on 
PATH variable value for example).

Making search about that, I tried to consult the documentation file
indicated in this script comments, and I noticed that the filename was
not complete because of a missing extension (see bug #104467 for
details).
