Hmmm.... I've done exactly that and the time *is* updated at 3.

Obviously that doesn't mean there isn't a problem somewhere, but I'm
going to assume this will rumble on beyond 4.3.11.

Could be terminal specific in some way, but I got this both with urxvt
and xterm.  More likely system-specific and an fflush() is still
missing.
