If solaris PV watches the xenstore /rtc/timeoffset, that's a problem.
But I dont't think so.

/rtc/timeoffset is an interface between HVM->hypervisor->ioemu->xend
(especially ioemu->xend), and xen hypervisor doesn't prepare an
interface to change the xenstore /rtc/timeoffset for PV domain.

At least, xen PV domain even has no /rtc/timeoffset entry in xenstore.

Thanks,
