I'd kind of like to keep timeofday(); it's the only simple way to
get a time display that includes "native" timezone info. For
instance, I get
regression=# select timeofday();
timeofday

I think every other option would show me "-04" not "EDT".
+1 for removing the rest of that, though. Unless somebody is
motivated to recast contrib/spi/timetravel with timestamptz
as the datetime type?
