It depends on what you define as "work".  8.1 says

regression=# select '506:47:04'::interval day to second ;
 interval
-----------
 506:47:04
(1 row)

8.0 and before say

regression=# select '506:47:04'::interval day to second ;
     interval
------------------
 21 days 02:47:04
(1 row)

because before 8.1 we didn't distinguish intervals of "1 day" and "24 hours"
as being different.  But the syntax has been accepted for a long time,
at least back to 7.0.

If there's some specific functionality you're after, you should say what
it is rather than expecting us to guess what you mean.
