Short Description
bug when using between or <= on varchar fields

Long Description
I just recognized that when using between or <= and >= on varchar fields postgresql 
behaves quite strange. If i search for users in my user table which does contain 
last_name entries beginning with o or p and have an sql that searches for 
"lower(last_name)>='k' and lower(last_name)<='o'" i get all results between k and n, 
but no "o-entries". If i do a "lower(last_name)>='k' and lower(last_name)<=p it works. 
I then get all results between k and o(no p's).
Using "between 'k' and 'o'" behaves just the same.
I think this is a bug(i'm using postgresql 7.2.3 on suse linux 8.1 with php 4.2.3)

Sample Code
SELECT user_id,.......
FROM cma_user
WHERE
LOWER(last_name)>='k' AND LOWER(last_name)<='o'

SELECT user_id,.......
FROM cma_user
WHERE
LOWER(last_name) BETWEEN 'k' AND 'o'
