Notifications are not displayed in cinnamon-2.6.13. Problem related to invalid format supplied for Date.toLocaleTimeString().

This problem affects also music players in case if one trying to control them using volume/music applet: Player interface freezes for up to 10 seconds between track switching, play/pause etc.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to settings -> Notifications
2. Press "Display a test notification" button
Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
Test notification is displayed

Fixing broken notifications patch.

Removing argument supplied to toLocaleTimeString(), so system-wide locale time string will be used.

Can you report this to upstream for ensuring it's fixed in a future version (and they also choose to fix it in this same way)?
