I don't believe it worked in 7.3 either, but before 7.4 we didn't really detect whether the system timezone library recognized the name or not.

Certainly that's what PG 8.0 will take. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
