You have a reference for HTTPS problems with skewed client time?

  Not OP, but the obvious issue is that with very large offsets the certificates all look like they've either expired or are future dated; either way they're not accepted. I had a laptop with a dead clock battery for a while; I would sometimes fumble the time when booting it and would discover the mistake when I couldn't load my webmail or Google. (Also, the filesystem would fsck itself because it was marked as last fscked either in the future or the far past, but I didn't always notice that.)
