I can reproduce this on core revision 1083 (armhf).

@ogra any idea how we can easily fix this? Whoever updates the symlink at /etc/localtime needs to respect that /etc/localtime is also now just a symlink to /etc/writable/localtime and that the proper target for the symlink needs to be ../../usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Detroit.

All this causes timedated to end up in UTC state.
