> Should the hardware clock actually be set to GMT?

It's your call.  If you have an ntp server it 
doesn't matter what it is set to -- timesync
will ignore it.  If you don't, then the default 
setup assumes GMT, but timesync -L exists
solely to coexist with operating systems
that insist on local time.
