The function time() already returns time in UTC. There is no need to convert it to GMT.
This link from 2002 explains it with detail:
http://www.mail-archive.com/php-general@lists.php.net/msg64176.html
"...timestamp is *always in GMT*, it returns the time since 1-Jan-1970 00:00:00, full stop,
period, end of story. In other words, timestamps operate in a single timezone, and it's up to
anything else that works with a timestamp to do the timezone (and daylight-savings)
corrections..."
