The penguins in winter boot splash is selected randomly on some smallish 
percentage of boots, though I don't recall the exact probability used. 
During December the probability is raised and you're very likely to see 
that boot splash screen.

As far as I know, the boot splash is unrelated to anything that 
transpired during previous operation of the system.
