Don't you need this in update_wall_time() too?
Yep. Good point.

BTW I suggest refactoring this code (two almost identical if{} bodies)
into a shared helper function.

Sounds good, although since the logic is ever so slightly different I might split up the pure fix and do the refactoring later so the fix is easier to apply to -stable branches.
