[DC-331] Wrong SQL output from Doctrine_Expression for pgsql with timestamp with time zone field

Tue, 5 Jan 2010 00:26:29 +0000

(1) pgsql connection
(2) timestamp with time zone column
(3) $doctrine_expression = new Doctrine_Expression('NOW()');
echo $doctrine_expression->getSQL();
gives:
LOCALTIMESTAMP(0)

What I'd like to get access to using that Doctrine construct is the
functionality of 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP', (has time zone,
stores time in TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE columns in UTC time)

Fortunately, all the databases that I want to use implement
'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP', but not all PDO/Doctrine databases
support that construct, even though it's ANSI SQL standard,
(which ANSI I don't know.)
