[@09sigfos2]

If I remember correctly (maybe I don't), FIDE chess rules states that as long as a checkmate is possible with the pieces on the board (including both the players' pieces), even if the two players would need to work together to make it happen, it is not considered insufficient material, so white running out of time would lose here.
