The gmdate() function returns the system's local time when used with the 'U' format option.  I've reproduced this on a couple of Linux systems (2.4.2 and 2.4.7 i686 systems).  Both of them function correctly when 'date' is called from the command line.

D'oh!  So it was my expectations that were broken, not the function.  Thanks to Brian Foddy for pointing out that Unix Epoch is seconds since Jan 1 1970, GMT so timezone is meaningless and date/gmdate are equivalent with 'U'.
