Not sure why 7.2 is misbehaving here --- it looks to me like it's adding
instead of subtracting the timezone offset, but I don't see any mention
of having fixed such a bug in the CVS logs.
I'd suggest changing your code to abstime(n) instead of datetime(n) ---
you will have to do that when you update to 7.3 anyway, and it gets the
right answer on 7.2.
