Odd Time of Day Reported with Ticker

[Sebastian Huber]

The problem is that you set the time via rtems_clock_set() in Init(). 
The you wait via rtems_task_wake_after(5s in ticks). With a 
rtems_task_wake_after(n) you wait to the n-th next tick, thus your wait 
interval is slightly less than 5s in most cases.
