FWIW, I get the correct answer in CVS tip on Red Hat Linux 8.0, which is using gcc 3.2 (and -O2, per defaults in our makefiles): regression=# set DateStyle TO postgres; SET regression=# select 'Wed Jul 12 17:34:29 2000'::timestamp; timestamp -------------------------- Wed Jul 12 17:34:29 2000 (1 row) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
