Hmm. I've sensed a general unhappiness with most of the world's time
zones recently ;)
But I'm afraid I'm not recalling the specific issues associated with GUC
vs no-GUC. What in the current behavior of date and time needs to
change? Is it locale issues (which for non-ISO date input and output is
a can of worms by itself) or something else?
