I didn't have to do anything special, just copied it in:
create table g (ts timestamp);
set datestyle=ISO, MDY;
copy g (ts) from stdin;
06/12/04 12:00:00
\.
select * from g;
ts
---------------------
2004-06-12 12:00:00
delete from g;
set datestyle=ISO, DMY;
copy g (ts) from stdin;
06/12/04 12:00:00
\.
select * from g;
ts
