So, almost seven hours after the fact, the offset finally updates.

But here's the weird thing:  The time reported by gpsd to ntpd didn't
change after the update.  I have the offset fudged in the config for
ntpd (the extra second).  When the real offset appeared on the receiver,
my reported offset should have been wrong but it's not, it's showing
it's only different by about 30 milliseconds instead of a full second
again.

I did restart gpsd but that didn't change anything, it's still reporting
a "wrong" time to ntpd.

I may just have to restart everything.

Now I'm even more confused. As of about an hour ago, the GPS UTC offset has gone *backward* from 16 to 15 again. I'm not sure what happened or why. At about 0700 UTC it started showing an offset of 16 seconds. Somewhere after 1300 it stepped backwards. I still have satellites in view, six are locked for a fix plus the one SBAS is good.
