Yes, DMS (three rational numbers) is what the Exif standard specifies as
input for these tags, so that is what PEL supports. We should probably
support decimal format as well.

I am not entirely sure, but are you saying that you use a floating point
number in the $seconds variable used above?
It must be an integer since you are constructing a rational number with
the array construct: "array($x, $y)" is the rational number "$x/$y",
where $x and $y are both integers.
Have you seen this file, which is only available with a SVN version:
http://pel.svn.sf.net/viewvc/*checkout*/pel/trunk/examples/gps.php
I hope it might be related to what you are trying to do.
