Hello,

is there any way (short of writing a function in an untrusted PL) to determine the actual time zone (or time) of the
serverOS? 
 

"show timezone" always returns the client's time zone. 

localtimestamp also converts the server's time to the client time zone (the one defined by "timezone")

log_timezone is also unreliable as it can be changed to anything.

I am looking for something along the lines of: "show server_timezone" or "select current_timestamp at time zone
server_timezone"
 

Is that possible?
