This seems like the well-known issue that if there is some timezone
{unknownzone} that PostgreSQL is unaware of, you oughtn't operate
either Slony-I or PostgreSQL with TZ={unknownzone} or
PGTZ={unknownzone}.
JST strikes me as being a timezone that I'd be a tad surprised for
PostgreSQL NOT to recognize. But that should represent a PostgreSQL
regression problem, not a problem with Slony-I...
