>>>You are right. The Gr"o himself makes this point, that the zman daled mil 
>>>is only in Bavel/EY. However he is a daas yochid in this point.

This is not the case.  Besides the Baal HaTanya, the Minchas Cohen (Maamar 
2, Ch. 3) considers the question whether the 4 mil that Rabbi Yehudah refers 
to vary according to the place (ie latitude).  He concludes that it clearly 
does, based on sevara, nisayon and the perush of the Rambam to the effect 
that the 72 minutes between alos hashachar and hanetz hachama is calculated 
using sha'os z'manios.
