The inception and expiration times in RRSIGs is specified as seconds
since 00:00:00 Jan 1 1970 UTC excluding leap seconds modulo 2^32.

There are no recommended fudge factors to use when evaluating these
times though named sets the expire time to 3600 seconds in the past
by default when generating RRSIGs.  I believe the other signers do
similar.  I've considered making the inception timestamp a whole
day in the past to cope with badly set timezones.

The signature validity intervals are on the order of days.  Named
defaults to 30 days.  They are regenerated about a week before they
are due expire if not already regenerated due to zone content
changes.  The records should expire from caches before they become
invalid if re-signing is being done properly.

So if the validator and the signer are both within 30 minutes of
the true time validation should succeed.
