	I've got a no-name Taiwanese VLB 486DX/33 motherboard, AMI
	BIOS, "DST option" OFF!, and am running a kernel as of the 19th.

	Same problem.. Seen it since I went to -current, on MAr. 5th.

	What I did to fix it [and what's probably wrong] is to leave out
	the "dst" in the config file... Then things look OK... And it does
	say CST when I ask... I have no clue how else I'm getting screwed
	by doing this [or if I am], so please, someone in the know enlighten
	us...
