Hi all,

Please accept attached patch for the following problem.

aftab@aftab-laptop:/opt/dev/pgsql/install/dbserver/bin$
aftab@aftab-laptop:/opt/dev/pgsql/install/dbserver/bin$ ./psql postgres
psql (9.0beta1)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# SHOW timezone;
   TimeZone
--------------
 Asia/Karachi
(1 row)

postgres=#
postgres=# CREATE TABLE test_table (c1 INT, c2 TIMESTAMP DEFAULT
timeofday()::TIMESTAMP);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# INSERT INTO test_table VALUES (1);
ERROR:  invalid input syntax for type timestamp: "Fri Apr 30 15:36:43.906075
2010 PKST"
postgres=#

And here is a little bit information about the system I am using.
