Guest time of day not updated when resuming from a saved virtual machine

Description
If I save and then resume a guest, the time of day is not updated in the guest. It continues from the point at which I saved the guest. So if I save the guest at noon, and then resume it at 6:00 PM, the guest still thinks it's noon.
I am running ntpd on my host. I have the guest configured to use the host (10.0.2.2 -- using NAT networking) as a time server, and I manually resync the time, it fixes up the time. My understanding is that the guest additions are supposed to reset the time when a machine is resumed.
Host is OpenSUSE 11.0.
Guest is OpenSolaris (currently at onnv_98, but this behavior isn't new). Using Guest Additions that came with 2.0.2.
Please reopen if still relevant with VirtualBox 2.2.4 or 3.0.0.
