Bug#628602: chromium: Date() always returns UTC unless --single-process is passed

[Will Thompson]

Package: chromium
Version: 11.0.696.71~r86024-1
Severity: normal

Since updating to Chromium 11 this morning, all my favourite cloud
services are reporting me being in UTC, rather than UTC+1 (British
summer time). I was pointed to
<http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=17535>; sure enough,
passing --single-process to `chromium` works around the issue, but
obviously that's not something I want to be doing regularly. :)
