Agreed.  What is really weird is that the time is always displayed for a
zero value:

        test=> select interval '0 years' year;
         interval
        ----------
         00:00:00
        (1 row)

but a non-zero shows the proper units:
        
        test=> select interval '1 years' year;
         interval
        ----------
         1 year
        (1 row)

Is that OK?
