Hello,
Thank you for your bug report.  However, this is not actually a bug.  Changing the time format inside a gnome session only affects that setting for that particular user.  

To change GDM to report time in 24 hour mode, add the following line in /etc/gdm/custom.conf under the [greeter] section:

Use24Clock=true

Hope this helps.  Thanks.
