Too bad this is 8.1; on something newer, the contents of the
pg_timezone_names view would be informative.
I still suspect an access permissions problem, but the only way I can
think of to be sure is to strace the Postgres backend process while
you issue SET TIMEZONE, and see what filename it tries to open and
what the kernel's return code is.
