* tests/clock.test: Modified some tests that were not robust with
respect to the time zone in which they were run and were thus failing. * doc/clock.n: Clarified meaning of -gmt with respect to -base when used with [clock scan] (-gmt does not affect the interpretation of -base). FossilOrigin-Name: 80bb9d067f3ad063fc5fb9efe28554787bf395c5
