No. Epoch is 00:00:00 UTC, January 1, 1970, and time returns number of
seconds since it. (time(NULL)/3600)%24 always returns hour in UTC.

It is localtime-gmttime.

No there is something weird with timezone. 
On my Linux box I have:

Winter:
localtime-gmtime=3600
timezone=-3600
daylight=1

Summer:
localtime-gmtime=7200
timezone=-3600
daylight=1

Apparently yes.
