It seems ok under 1.4.2 on Linux, with driver build 310, in NZST:
id=1, effective=1122292800000
id=2, effective=1122292800000
id=3, effective=1122292800000
What timezone is the AIX box in exactly? Can you try a 1.4.2 JVM on there?
The only thing I can think of is some sort of Calendar modification
caused by the first getDate() is carrying over to subsequent calls (the
calendar used is shared between calls), but given that the only thing
that code really touches is the zone/dst offsets, and they're reset each
time, I'm not sure what exactly it would be.
You could try putting something like
System.err.println("calendar: " + cal);
in org.postgresql.jdbc2.TimestampUtils.toDate() around line 253, just
before the return, and see if there are any notable differences between
the first and second calls..
