[ PostgreSQL 7.4.5, Linux (Debian sarge) ]
The date_trunc function is making some off-by-one errors when working at
a DST border.
=> select date_trunc('minute', '2004-10-31 01:00:00-05'::timestamptz);
date_trunc
------------------------
2004-10-31 01:00:00-04
Expecting 2004-10-31 01:00:00-05, same error happens with minutes after
1 am. The timezone error also happens when truncating to minutes,
seconds, hours. I suspect this is happening because there are two
01:00:00 local time this day because of the "fall back" DST switch.
