Now for a mystery: I actually installed said postgres even though it failed
the regression test, and

template1=# SELECT (timestamp with time zone 'today' = (timestamp with time
template1(# zone 'tomorrow' - interval '1 day')) as "True";
 True
------
 t
(1 row)

gmake runcheck still fails horology(!)

Got it! We (Britain) changed time last week => it passes when I run the newly
installed database, whereas the regression test happens in PST8PDT, and I
believe you change time this weekend!

Sorry,

Patrick
