Yes, Yaffle's fix seems like it would also be fine.  I assume the test is
trying to verify that valueOf returns a valid number.  I don't think it's
valid for valueOf to return a string with a numeric value, is it?

I was just trying to make the minimal patch to fix the "fails if user is in
GMT" issue, since it wasn't really clear what the test should be doing.
