yes SUNFUNCS_RET_TIMESTAMP does return GMT(0) time

so something like...

$arr = localtime(date_sunset(time(),SUNFUNCS_RET_TIMESTAMP,51.5,0)); // London

$hh = $arr[2];
$mm = $arr[1];

Will give figure out your localtime and daylight saving (BST)

maybe I am wrong, but I think

SUNFUNCS_RET_TIMESTAMP     return GMT(0) time

SUNFUNCS_RET_STRING     Return local time
SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE     Return local time

I use an IP to location database to determine the visitor's approximate latitude and longitude and then serve them a day or night color scheme based on whether it is before civil dawn or dusk. I've had problems when not specifying the timezone, specifically a 1 hour error, so I use GMT.

<?php
date_default_timezone_set
("GMT");

function
scheme() {
       
$sunrise = date_sunrise(time(), SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE, $latitude, $longitude, 96, 0);
       
$sunset = date_sunset(time(), SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE, $latitude, $longitude, 96, 0);
       
$now = date("H") + date("i") / 60 + date("s") / 3600;

        if (
$sunrise < $sunset)
                if ((
$now > $sunrise) && ($now < $sunset)) return "day";
                else return
"night";
        else
                if ((
$now > $sunrise) || ($now < $sunset)) return "day";
                else return
"night";
}
?>
