Hm, works for me:
Welcome to psql 8.1.10, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help with psql commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
regression=# set timezone to 'Pacific/Auckland';
SET
regression=# select '2007-10-01 06:12:40.097244+12'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
-------------------------------
2007-10-01 07:12:40.097244+13
(1 row)
What have you got "timezone" set to? Did you remember to restart
the postmaster after updating?
