Another DST related problem in pgsql 8.1.5 ...
drop table dst;
create table dst (tz1 timestamp with time zone, tz2 timestamp with time
zone, tzage interval);
insert into dst ( select ('2005-01-02'::date+(days*7))::timestamptz as t1
from generate_series(0,150) as days );
update dst set tz2 = tz1::timestamp + '12 hours';
update dst set tzage = age( tz2 at time zone 'GMT', tz1 at time zone 'GMT' );
select * from dst where tzage <> '12 hrs';
tz1 | tz2 | tzage

My query produces the correct results for 2005 and 2006; but in 2007 DST
dates are changing in North America and my query seems to still be using
2006 rules for 2007 data. What can I do about this? Query should report
2007-03-18 and 2007-11-11.
