I may not be understanding the question fully but, since gmtime() is a Perl built-in... I doubt that @INC is the source of your problem. Is the name of your module gmtime.pm? Does your module define a gmtime subroutine? Maybe an example of the offending code would shed some more light on the problem.

I did just notice you said &gmtime() ... that would mean that gmtime must be a subroutine defined somewhere as 

sub gmtime() {
  #do something
}

I did a quick test with the following... 
#!/usr/bin/perl
print scalar gmtime,"\n";
print &gmtime;

which yielded:

Undefined subroutine &main::gmtime called at ...blah blah
