We feel that the SQL timestamp definition as regards with/without time
zone is undesirable. Our timestamp type always stores the time in UTC and
prints it out according to the local time zone. The fact that the type
then comes out as 'timestamp with time zone' is disputed, but they are in
fact one and the same type.
