With Oracle (at least since 6.x version) this conversion is wrong.

It is rejected by the standard date input converter:

regression=# select '2005-02-32'::date;
ERROR:  date/time field value out of range: "2005-02-32"
HINT:  Perhaps you need a different "datestyle" setting.

However we consider that to_date() exists to be Oracle compatible,
and so I would regard this as a bug if and only if Oracle does
something different with the same input.  Anyone know?
