Is it worth a sanity check that the tv_sec scaling doesn't overflow?  Of
course, that won't happen until far into the future (well beyond the
2038 overflow of 32-bit seconds since Epoch), so it won't hit in OUR
lifetime, so I can look the other way.

UTC and GMT are not the same thing.  I'd drop the '/GMT'.

This sentence is redundant with the first one, and has grammar issues.
Drop it.
