Is PostgreSQL broken? Or is it FreeBSD?
--

PostgreSQL does not currently check the results of mktime(). On a
border condition, mktime() fails and would populate invalid data
into the database.
Most other *NIX's seem to automatically account for this and
automatically adjust the value when it gets passed to mktime(&tm).
Should FreeBSD have it's mktime() in libc updated?
CREATE TABEL tt ( tt TIMESTAMP );
INSERT INTO tt VALUES ('2002-4-7 2:0:0.0');

Your eyes are weary from staring at the CRT. You feel sleepy. Notice
how restful it is to watch the cursor blink. Close your eyes. The
opinions stated above are yours. You cannot imagine why you ever felt
otherwise.
