Neither am I complaining about 7.1 malfunctioning nor am I
saying that the actual result matters. What I *am* saying is
that - although some versions may be wrong or right in
different ways - one can surely get values mapped to different
time zones for one and the same stored timestamp out of the
database in a single query. Which was what I thought the OP
said wasn't possible.
