Oracle jdbc driver 11.1.0.7 TIMESTAMPLTZ.toTimestamp(conn, ltz.toBytes()) used to return timestamp corresponding to the time zone set on connection.
That was wrong (confirmed by Oracle jdbc team).
In 11.2.0.2 the method returns timestamp in GMT.

Eclipselink used to workaround the old behaviour, this should no longer be done for 11.2.0.2.
The failing checks shouldn't be done - they used to pass on the previous versions because of an even number of errors.
