Is there a function that returns the UTC time, either as a UnixTime or
TDateTime irregardless of timezone?

Frank,

You could search the fpc and lazarus mailing list; I know there've been
posts regarding this.
IIRC, the conclusion was that doing this is potentially very difficult
to do cross platform, keeping daylight saving changes etc in mind.

agreed... even in the TP/BP6/7 days... it depends on the setting of the local clock as to whether you to daylight saving display or not... i know of many that operate on UTC and do not do local time when viewing... it can be done but it is going to be a "trick" ;)
