Comment (by MattyRob):

 Over the last few months I've tried different appraches to this, I find
 that these both work:


 {{{
 $time = current_time('timestamp') + $interval;
 while ($timestamp < current_time('timestamp')) {
         // if we are trying to set the time in the past increment it
 forward
         // by the interval period until it is in the future
         $timestamp += $interval;
 }
 }}}

 And:
 {{{
 $time = time() + $interval;
 while ($timestamp < time()) {
         // if we are trying to set the time in the past increment it
 forward
         // by the interval period until it is in the future
         $timestamp += $interval;
 }
 }}}

 However, I'd have to say that using current_time() seems to me more
 reliably offset to GMT on local servers and needs less manipulation than
 the results from time().
