the timezone argument as a timezone abbreviation, and only try it as a full timezone name if that fails. The zic database has four zones (CET, EET, MET, WET) that are full daylight-savings zones and yet have names that are the same as their abbreviations for standard time, resulting in ambiguity. In the timestamp input functions we resolve the ambiguity by preferring the abbreviation, and AT TIME ZONE should work the same way. (No functionality is lost because the zic database also has other names for these zones, eg Europe/Zurich.) Per gripe from Jaromir Talir. Backpatch to 8.1. Older releases did not have the issue because AT TIME ZONE only accepted abbreviations not zone names. (Thus, this patch also arguably fixes a compatibility botch introduced at 8.1: in ambiguous cases we now behave the same as 8.0 did.) |
