No such luck :-(
I created that variable, set to zero, and booted that virtual machine. The
output of date matched the host date, which should not be the case after the
change.
eleanor3:~ # hwclock --debug
hwclock from util-linux 2.21.2
Using /dev interface to clock.
Last drift adjustment done at 0 seconds after 1969
Last calibration done at 0 seconds after 1969
Hardware clock is on local time
Assuming hardware clock is kept in local time.
Waiting for clock tick...
..got clock tick
Time read from Hardware Clock: 2013/10/01 14:45:27
Hw clock time : 2013/10/01 14:45:27 = 1380631527 seconds since 1969
2013-10-01T14:45:27 CEST -0.070763 seconds

It is also interesting that when the local clock changes from summer to winter,
the guest has the correct time. If the clock had a fixed time difference (as
per rtc.diffFromUTC), the guest clock would not match.
Notice that, AFAIK, the guest clock is kept in sync by the guest tools, which
probably means that it depends on the host user (not system) time. It is not
recommended to run NTP on the guest (so says their documentation).
