    _______________________________________________________

Details:

IPMI 2.0 section 37 ("Timestamp Format") states that all timestamps (e.g. for
SDR repository and SEL) are "representing local time ... does not include GMT
offset.", yet ipmi-sel and bmc-device interpret timestamps as though they are
based on GMT/UTC and apply the local timezone bias before printing in
human-readable form.
