Tom Lane 4c5d837e69 Fix our mapping of Windows timezones for Central America.
We were mapping "Central America Standard Time" to "CST6CDT", which seems
entirely wrong, because according to the Olson timezone database noplace
in Central America observes daylight savings time on any regular basis ---
and certainly not according to the USA DST rules that are implied by
"CST6CDT".  (Mexico is an exception, but they can be disregarded since
they have a separate timezone name in Windows.)  So, map this zone name to
plain "CST6", which will provide a fixed UTC offset.

As written, this patch will also result in mapping "Central America
Daylight Time" to CST6.  I considered hacking things so that would still
map to CST6CDT, but it seems it would confuse win32tzlist.pl to put those
two names in separate entries.  Since there's little evidence that any
such zone name is used in the wild, much less that CST6CDT would be a good
match for it, I'm not too worried about what we do with it.

Per complaint from Pratik Chirania.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
