I have observed exactly the opposite. I think i installed my laptop
saying that the correct time was on the cmos clock. Then when i 
booted freebsd, no time adjustment was done. After that i booted Win
who adjusted the cmos clock. Rebooting freebsd, the time was correct.
So all this depends how you have installed freebsd. Unfortunately
i have not been able to find the command line tool to adjust this.
