Date uses incorrect timezone in Windows

[ghost]

The time zone of the machine is Central European Standard Time (GMT+1:00), but node insists on using Central European Daylight-saving Time (it is what "(Stredoeurópsky čas (letný))" means).

This is all handled in v8 so if you really want correct daylight savings time handling for dates 30 years back, file a v8 bug.
