I had a look at it. Please modify the patch first, see comments in

The reason why I put UniversalTime (a.k.a. NowUTC) function in DateUtils is
because of the dependency on LocalTimeToUniversal, UnixToDateTime,
IncMilliSecond functions.
As far as I can see, these perform almost the same function as EpochToLocal in
sysutils/unix.
You can perfectly do these additions manually.
I presumed that DateUtils cannot (or must not) be added to the uses section
of SysUtils.
Indeed it cannot.
What would you recommend?
I don't see why you cannot perform simple additions in sysutils.
The reverse, introducing system dependent system calls in dateutils, is a
much worse solution. DateUtils is for simple date/time calculations, not for
performing OS calls.
