js/dom/date-big-setmonth.html

Not sure if these are new to this patch, but should probably take a look into it.

Investigation notes: the following Date files have Windows specific implementations:

    WTF/wtf/DateMath.cpp
    WTF/wtf/GregorianDateTime.cpp
    JavaScriptCore/runtime/DateConversion.cpp
    JavaScriptCore/runtime/DatePrototype.cpp

This describes what you did but not why you did it.  Can you please explain the reasoning behind this?  What’s different about Windows such that this is needed?

With a preliminary analysis, Widows returns default time milliseconds is based on UTC milliseconds unlike other OSs.

That’s nice to know, but it’s still not enough to tell us that this fix is correct and conclusive.  Let’s get more data on why Windows is behaving this way.

Also, if the timeType passed into calculateLocalTimeOffset() says that the incoming ms is in local time, then we would expect it to be in local time.  If this is not the case on Windows, then something upstream is not obeying the contract.  Hence, this is the wrong place to apply this fix.

Per my previous comment, this is the wrong fix.  If Windows is passing in a UTC time value, then the fix must be somewhere up stream.  It should either pass in a timeType of UTCTime, or ms should be in local time.

I will keep working on it and update it as soon as I will find a root cause.

If it helps, I also found some layout tests failing as a result:
  js/date-parse-comments-test.html [ Failure ]
  js/date-parse-test.html [ Failure ]
  js/date-set-to-nan.html [ Failure ]
  js/dom/date-big-setmonth.html [ Failure ]

I'll be skipping these as well.
