The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference: 2661
Logged by: Harry Hehl
Email address: harry.hehl@diskstream.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.1.3
Operating system: Linux
Description: select time with time zone not converting
Details:

The "select timestamp with time zone" is working as expected converting the
timestamp to the local time zone.

"select time with time zone" returns the same timezone.

Example:

CREATE TABLE test
(
mytime TIME (6) WITH TIME ZONE,
mytimestamp TIMESTAMP (6) WITH TIME ZONE
);

SET time zone -5;

INSERT INTO test VALUES ('00:00:00', '2006-02-01 00:00:00');

select * from test where mytimestamp = timestamp with time zone '2006-02-01
05:00:00-00';

-- returns inserted row.

select * from test where mytime = time with time zone '05:00:00-00';

-- nothing returned.


select timestamp with time zone '2006-02-01 05:00:00-00';

-- timestamptz
------------------------
-- 2006-02-01 00:00:00-05
--(1 row)

select time with time zone '05:00:00-00';
-- timetz
-------------
-- 05:00:00+00 This should be '00:00:00-05'
--(1 row)

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match

Confirmed in 8.1.4 and HEAD, though I'm not sure what date it's from
since I'm on a plane right now (is there any way to get that info out
of the local repository?)

Actually, this is expected behavior. Unlike timestamptz, timetz actually
stores the original timezone info.
