OK. That should not be a problem, I guess. The timezone thing is a per-user setting, not a system setting.
Perhaps. But I think it is a system setting. It is on my installations - openSUSE, Mandriva and Redhat It is in /etc/timezone.
Yes, it can be overridden on a per user basis with the TZ environment variable. Check to see if you have that set.
TZ is not relevant as it is not set during boot, when /etc/init.d/{boot.clock,ntpd} are run. You are currect in your first assumption that hwclock during boot and shutdown only cares for /etc/localtime.
