The min DOM timer interval is set just after the first page is created. When pages are created, they use the currently set timer interval. Thus, we should be setting the min DOM timer interval sooner - ideally, just before page creation. As a follow up, this DOM timer setting code could be cleaned up better very soon since it appears that all (or at least most) of the ports are now agreeing upon default values. I've filed this bug for that followup cleanup: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61214

I suggest calling this even before the definition of the pageClients local variable, right after the assert.
