Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Release 8.04
Package version 2.22.1.3-0ubuntu1

Steps to reproduce: 
1. Set the time format in the clock app to 12-hour format.
2. If not already so, set up two locations: one in an area that uses a 24-hour 
format for time by default, and another in an area that uses a 12-hour format 
(Amsterdam, NL and Seattle, US, for instance).
3. If the app's calendar and locations panel is open, close and reopen it. 
Otherwise, open it.

Notice that both locations display their current time in their default
time format. (Amsterdam will be in 24h format, Seattle in 12h)

4. Wait for the location times to update, at most one minute.

Notice that all location times now display in 12-hour format. (Both
Amsterdam and Seattle will display in 12h format)

5. Close and reopen the panel.

Notice that all locations revert to their own default time formats, but
will switch to 12-hour format when times are updated, as above.

6. Close the panel. Switch to 24-hour format in the clock app's
preferences.

7. Open the panel.

Notice that all times are now displayed in 24-hour format, regardless of
any location's default format. Specifically, any location that by
default uses a 12-hour format will not use it. (Amsterdam is in 24h
format, which is correct, but Seattle is also in 24h format. This is
inconsistent with the initial behavior when using 12h format, though
it's impossible to know which is correct.)
