Now that my NZ server is up and running:

template1=# select now();
              now
-------------------------------
 2003-07-05 12:47:15.444535+12

That doesn't look backwards to me.  Perhaps I don't understand the 
problem.  After rereading your original post:

         Local time is equal to UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) plus
         the time zone displacement,

In the above, the local time is  2003-07-05 12:47:15.444535.  UTC 
would be  2003-07-05 00:47:15.444535.  To which we add +12 hours to 
get local time.  That appears to be consistent with the SQL99 spec.
