I think the problem here is that you have to set --outputdir too.
$ LC_ALL=C /pgsql/build/00head/src/test/regress/pg_regress --inputdir=/pgsql/source/00head/src/test/regress
--outputdir=/pgsql/build/00head/src/test/regresstimetz
(using postmaster on Unix socket, port 55432)
============== dropping database "regression" ==============
DROP DATABASE
============== creating database "regression" ==============
CREATE DATABASE
ALTER DATABASE
============== running regression test queries ==============
test timetz ... ok
=====================All 1 tests passed.
=====================
Note that this is a VPATH build, so the input and output dirs are
