If there's a linebreak after the ?>, it should be removed, but that doesn't explain the parse error. It sounds like ubbt.inc.php is messed up, but it's hard to know what's wrong without looking at it.
The error about getmicrotime() is a secondary error result from the failure to parse ubbt.inc.php.
