Hi,

I have a dev and prod Greenplum system (4.2.2.4) that is based on PG 8.2.15
I have a function that's been working fine on dev, but when implemented in prod 
had a syntax error.
I was easily able to fix by casting, but I can't see why the message didn't 
show up on our dev machine.

can you double check pg version on both dev and prod.  My guess is that prod is 
8.3+ -- casting rules were tightened with 8.3.
