The bug appears simply this:

Even with UTC=no, Ubuntu stores the time as UTC at shutdown. But since UTC=no, it expects the time as local, thus applies no timezone correction, and the time is 4 hours fast for those in EDT country.

Took me the longest time to suss it out, since having automatic time synch enabled fixed the time before a clock was ever displayed - for me, the problem only showed up when I dual-booted over to Windows, or turned off the auto-sync.
