Just finished a fresh install I started before finding this thread, and I can confirm...
It is localtime 2007 August 23rd, 12:34am, and all my font directories are timestamped at 2007-08-23 9:52, about 9:30 ahead of present (when I installed), which given that I live in Adelaide, which is GMT+9:30, I suggest that this bug be transfered to a bug in the install CD, as it has nothing to do with fontconfig at all.

Another solution to this problem, would be to wait (your GMT offset) between installing and your first boot of the system. Or to fiddle with your system clock. But wolfe99's solution is much quicker :-)

I am certain that no-one at Greenwich or west of Greenwich has encountered this bug.

I used the feisty-i386-alternative install cd, as my video card does not work with the desktop cd.
