+  * debian/patches/593_omit_lastchange_field_if_clock_is_misset (LP: #349504)
+    - If the system clock is set to Jan 01, 1970, and a new user is created
+      the last changed field gets set to 0, which tells login that the 
+      password is expired and must be changed. During installation, 
+      this can cause autologin to fail. Having the clock set to 01/01/1970
+      on a fresh install is common on the ARM architecture, so this is a high
+      priority bug since its likely to affect most ARM users on first install
