Package: chromium
Version: 30.0.1599.101-1

Hi,

I (mostly) don't have the described problem:
  * Start chromium.
  * Press <Ctrl+Shift+I> to open developer tools.
  * Click on the tab 'Console'.
  * Enter in the console: 'alert(new Date())'
  * A popup shows with the current time in the correct timezone, e.g.:
    'Sun Nov 10 2013 13:58:35 GMT+0100 (CET)'

  * Change the timezone.
  * Enter in the console: 'alert(new Date())'
  * A popup shows with the wrong time, e.g.:
    'Sun Nov 10 2013 13:58:57 GMT+0100 (EST)'
  * Note that only the name of the timezone is changed, not the time.

  * Restart chromium and repeat the above steps.
  * A popup shows with the current time in the new timezone, e.g.:
    'Sun Nov 10 2013 07:59:20 GMT-0500 (EST)'

Note that in spite of my own experience, there are still quite new (Sep 
29, 2013) confirmations of this bug upstream on http://crbug.com/17535.

Please try it with the current version of chromium and report your results.

Best regards,
Andreas
