Comment (by Rarst):

 A bit more context on problem with `$gmt` and pending code fix:

 1. `$gmt` is ''only'' applied if timestamp ''is not'' provided. Otherwise
 it's ignored. Inline documentation needs to reflect that.
 2. The output is currently broken by outputting UTC time with WP timezone,
 which produces incorrect current time. This is hard to notice since
 timezone isn't often included in output format (linked core usage doesn't
 have it).

 I'll work on unit test and submit a new patch for the code fix part.
