There's just a little more to it than that. Setting that parameter
will make the /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh script use the correct switch
for its hwclock commands, but you should get into the habit of
using the switch (--utc or its opposite --localtime) when you
use the hwclock command yourself (particularly if you've been
making changes).

Cheers,
