Thanks guys for your prompt support!
I'm going to update Olson library on the concerned computer using the latest files.
Thanks again.

PostgreSQL uses the timezone data from the so-called Olson library. See http://www.twinsun.com/tz/tz-link.htm. Looking at the upstream library, this is fixed in the most recent version (tzdata2012c), We will pick up that change in the next PostgreSQL minor release, ie. 9.0.8 for the 9.0 series.
