Comment:

 In [changeset:"55054" 55054]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="55054"
 Date/Time: Prevent errors in `current_time()` when using timestamp and no
 value for `gmt_offset`.

 This changeset moves typecasting to affect the `get_option` value, which
 ensures that when math is done it does not generate any error. In PHP 7.4
 and earlier the previous implementation was dismissed as a warning, but in
 PHP 8+ it would have throw a fatal error.

 Follow-up to [45856].

 Props Nick_theGeek, SergeyBiryukov, johnbillion.
 Fixes #57035.
