Hello Kris
After more investigation I found that the bug I'm talking about can be
reproduced on timestamp column also.

The configuration is as follows :
PostgeSQL runs on WindowsXP that has "Automatically adjust clock for dst
savings" OFF, timezone is (GMT+02:00) Jerusalem
Client runs on WindowsXP that has "Automatically adjust clock for dst
savings" OFF , timezone is (GMT+02:00) Jerusalem

The test stores 2004-08-09 20:30:15.50 timestamp into a table and
immediately fetches it.
Actual result : the value fetched is 2004-08-09 21:30:15.5
Expected result : the value fetched is 2004-08-09 20:30:15.5

Note : if you set client's "Automatically adjust clock for dst savings"
to ON, the test passes.

Attached are test and table sql.

Thanks,
Boris
