Figured it out - I was on the wrong track. It was something the user was 
typing in.

There is a field called "Year of birth", and the user was typing in date, 
month, year & ?? (e.g. "2909501950"). It passed the integer validator, but 
it is out of range for a postgresql integer. 

I guess I should implement my own integer validator?

Thanks,
Neil
