There's some complaints about this on the mailing list but it is not clear if it was solved. I would try checking to see if you have the latest version. The home page for this project seems to have a few dead links so I don't know how active it is.
Like Alex said, cast the $seconds or do something like adding by zero or multiplying by 1 to force the conversion into a numeric type.
Hopefully though the latest version addresses this. (It would be interesting to try to figure out why PHP5 is casting just that part as a string, but sadly I don't have time for that.)
