PostgreSQL version: 8.1.0
Operating system: Debian sarge
Description: strage PREPARE/EXECUTE behavior
Details:
EXECUTE return wrong result after ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN TYPE. Is this
expected behavior?

'123450-10-10 15:43:18.790174' is certainly not '2005-11-30
12:27:49.569859'.
Same problem with other datatypes.
And a second question: why PQprepare() from libpq returns empty PQresult?
It's useful to know field number, field types before PQexecutePrepared.
