Sent my previous message too soon, to add:
Postgres seems to be aware of the DST status for Europe/Moscow(MSK):
test=> select * from pg_timezone_names where abbrev='MSK';
name | abbrev | utc_offset | is_dst
---------------+--------+------------+--------
Europe/Moscow | MSK | 04:00:00 | f
W-SU | MSK | 04:00:00 | f
test=> select * from pg_timezone_names where name='Europe/Moscow';
name | abbrev | utc_offset | is_dst
---------------+--------+------------+--------
Europe/Moscow | MSK | 04:00:00 | f
(1 row)
Would seem to mean the zoneinfo database is incorrect.
