If I am understanding this correctly:

"The parent process would long since have cached the zone data in its
memory, but this error is in a parallel worker process, which'd have
to read the file for itself during startup.
"

Then this:

"As an experiment, I'm just pounding the server with a single connection 
doing nothing but SET TIMEZONEs repeatedly.  So far, no break, but it is 
*very* intermittent."

May not induce the error unless there are parallel workers involved.
