The script that produces the problem for me:
<? system('date') ?>
<p>

<? system('date -u') ?>
<p>

<? print date('l, d-M-y h:i:s') ?>
<p>

<? print gmdate('l, d-M-y h:i:s') ?>
<p>

The output on my system (central daylight time):

Sun Sep 6 12:56:02 CDT 1998 

Sun Sep 6 17:56:02 GMT 1998 

Sunday, 06-Sep-98 12:56:02

Use capital H to get hour 0..23,
use small h to get hour 1..12.

print gmdate('l, d-M-y H:i:s');
