Well...  In my feeble memory there is this vague notion that the control panel
gets its date from the keyboard clock when it is started, which is often not
set by the clock setting programs that come with hard-drives and/or NV clock
chips.  The \auto folder program sets the TOS time from whatever clock and the
control panel comes up later (since it is a desk accessory) and resets the
time to whatever the keyboard clock says.   This gets even more confusing
when you are running this old code on a Mega, which has a built in NV clock
as well because some clock setting programs that have been floating around
use the IKBD protocol to access the keyboard clock.  In any case, sometimes
you need to make sure that the \auto clock setter sets the keyboard clock
before the control panel is loaded.
