Well there where changes in the way timezones are set in 9.2.

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/release-9-2.html



Identify the server time zone during initdb, and set postgresql.conf
entries timezone and log_timezone accordingly (Tom Lane)

This avoids expensive time zone probes during server start.

What is the server timezone?

What is the timezone value in postgresql.conf?

Where are you seeing the change?
