Linux systemd-timesyncd seems to have some limit, too. When our appliance-like systems get an invalid time from the hardware clock, they boot with a system clock of 2019 IIRC. systemd-timesyncd does not correct that depite me assuming that the ntp server works correctly.

Well, it happens rarely enough and we have workaround, so the bug report still sits in the queue behind more urgent problems. Haven't read the source yet, which is what you should do on Linux of course...
