Hi Folks !
I just found a bug in the postgresql time/date routines.
Try the following in the psql shell :
select ('10-01-2000'::date + ('1 month')::timespan)::date;
The result is going to be
10-31-2000
But it should be
11-01-2000
If you take any other month than October, it is working fine. So 09-01-2000 + 1 month => 10-01-2000.
I've tested this with postgresql 6.5.3 as well as 7.0.2
Thanks for the good work....

P.S. what about a way to cancel a query that is waiting for a locked table / row ?
