This should be nothing to do with the GPLPV drivers.

localtime= doesn't appear to work with any of the xen versions I have
tried, up to and including 3.2.2. You can use 'rtc_timeoffset=<minutes>'
to achieve a similar effect though, I use 'rtc_timeoffset=39600' (+11
hours), although you have to change it if you move into or out of
'summer time'.
