Where does the greeter get its time from?

Indicator-datetime ultimately gets its time from a call to g_date_time_new_now_local() + the system timezone, and (unless there's a bug) is updated at least once per minute. But several people here (jibel, ogra, more) are reporting the clock being /far/ out of sync.

Could one of you please attach the output of this run from phablet-shell next time you see the datetime clock dramatically out of sync?
