After some sleepless nights and a DB with messed-up GMT-Epoch-timestamps,
I tried to figure out the problem with gmmktime and only then found that 
the bug persists since quite a while:

   http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=14391

At this point you CANNOT RELY ON GMT-TIMESTAMPS created by gmmktime(). They 
fail on w2k with the switch from/to DST and are the respective hour off... 
See problem description and examples in the link above.

Does anyone know workarounds for this?

I can help by providing testcases or testing grounds if that is nessesary,
but I propose that this should be fixed asap. The clock is ticking and the 
next moment where the php-epoch-stamps will go crazy again is Oct 26th, 2002 


greets.
