If you're able to supply a constant value, why not subtract 1 month
before you submit the query?
AFAIK timestamptz arithmetic depends upon the current timezone which is
a STABLE value and so won't currently work with partitioning.
Having partitioning work with STABLE functions should be a TODO item if
it isn't already, but that requires some thought to implement and won't
happen for 8.3.
