Well, your expectation is wrong. Unix timestamps, which is what you
are using, are timezone neutral. That means that a timestamp of 3600
refers to the same moment in history, not the same time. Therefore
date("H:i:s",3600) is going to give you a different answer depending on
which timezone you are in.

No that is not what I want. I do exactly what I want to do and expect
to get back 0:00:01 as it should.
When I give DATE("H:i:s", 3600) it returns 17:00:00.
I'm trying to display the elapse time between to timestamps (standard
UNIX MKTIME values). I just simplified your error for you, because the
difference in MKTIME timestamps is in seconds.

You probably want gmdate() if you are expecting it to return the GMT
epoch

When doing this simple function date("H:i:s",1) php returns 16:00:01.
Testing with other values still finds this issue.
Haven't seen this as reported out there so assume 4.3.1 has same bug
still.
Thank you,
James
