The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 6638
Logged by: David Chuet
Email address: dchuet(at)odotech(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: 9.0.7
Operating system: Windows 7 x64
Description:

Using Postgresql command :

------------------------------------------
SELECT * FROM pg_timezone_names
------------------------------------------
We get for Africa/Casablanca, timezone equal to WET with no DST.

This is not true from 2010.
See Wikipedia, for Morocco:

Time zone WET (UTC+0)
Summer (DST) WEST (UTC+1)(May 2nd to August 7th)

So, I cannot set correctly the DateTime for an install in Morocco.
