I don't have a particularly good idea of why that would be happening, but
does select (date '1901/12/13' = date '1901/12/14'); return true for you
(attempting to see if you get the same results from a different method
of getting the date fields).
And what does select timestamp '1901/12/13' + interval '1 day'; give you?

Actually it looks like the option I was remembering that broke some of the
datetime functionality is at least checked for explicitly in 7.3.4 and
gives a compile time error.
