Why?

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#timezone says
--utc

    If present, the system assumes the hardware clock is set to UTC
    (Greenwich Mean) time.

On real hardware, I seem to remember --utc is what is recommended. I can
understand if we have different requirements for a VM, but imo that deserves
an explanation.
