The DateField example runs correctly in pyjd, even with my time zone, so the bug is specific to the compilation over to javascript. Unfortunately, at this point, I have to surrender because my knowledge of Javascript (as well as the pyjamas compiler) is zero, and, sadly, I won't have the time necessary to get my head around it right now.
Thank you all for so much help. I took a crack at this problem as best I could.
