Hi Chris,

thanks for the report!

(Fwiw, your build log has stdout/stderr garbled here, the FAILED line
should be just before SENT, not 50 lines above.)

Confirmed, this is actually a bug in the PostgreSQL server, though it
only shows up with datestyle=postgres (which is pretty obsolete), and
TZ=UTC+-N (which is rare). It will hopefully get fixed in 9.4.5.

I'm downgrading the ftbfs to important, as it doesn't show up when
using "real" timezones. (I'd rather not put a workaround like TZ=UTC
into debian/rules as it would just paper over the issue, and there's
nothing to fix in libpqtypes itself.)

Christoph
