Sean Chittenden ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) reports a bug with a severity of 2
The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
date/time storage problem: timestamp parsed incorrectly...

Long Description
It looks like a bad parser or defaults for time values.  The example code below 
explains the problem best.  I'm not sure why, or where... but it took me about a day 
to track down (PostgreSQL is never wrong!).  If I include a timezone, things seem to 
work.  For some reason, only dates from yesterday and today break things... I think 
it's because -7 is the same as my timezone, PST (now -7).

Sample Code
CREATE TABLE timestamp_test (
  utc_timestamp TIMESTAMP NOT NULL
);

INSERT INTO timestamp_tmp VALUES ('2002-4-7 2:0:0.0');
SELECT * from timestamp_tmp;
        utc_date        
------------------------
 2036-06-02 22:55:24-07
(1 row)
INSERT INTO timestamp_tmp VALUES ('2002-4-7 -8 2:0:0.0');
SELECT * from timestamp_tmp;
        utc_date        
------------------------
 2036-06-02 22:55:24-07
 2002-04-07 03:00:00-07
