many prefs changed after "cloning back" a Sandbox to the underlying drive

I updated (via "cloning back the underlying drive") from a Sandbox (using Smart Update) and all seemed to go well. I was able to boot from the target (underlying) drive.

After booting from the Sandbox again, I noticed that not all of my login items started up. Looking at ~/library/preferences I noticed that there were at least 30 preference (.plist) files with a modification timestamp of the time the computer was rebooted after the "cloning back" procedure, including com.apple.loginitems.plist and loginwindow.plist.

Using Time Machine, I restored the entire Preferences folder from the TM backup an hour earlier, and all was well.

Any ideas what this might be about?
