problem with date cast

hi all,
with latest cvs version of pg i've found this problem:

ns:/tmp> createdb gino
CREATE DATABASE
ns:/tmp> psql gino
Welcome to psql, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help on internal slash commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit

gino=# create table test (date date, timestamp timestamp);
CREATE TABLE
gino=# insert into test values ('now','now');
INSERT 32101 1
gino=# \x
Expanded display is on.
gino=# select *,date::date as right,timestamp::date as wrong from test ;
-[ RECORD 1 ]-------------------------
date | 27/05/2002
timestamp | 27/05/2002 18:17:30,577187
right | 27/05/2002
wrong | 01/01/2000

am i missing something?

some info:
Linux ns 2.4.18-pre9-ac4 #1 lun feb 18 14:24:51 CET 2002 i686 unknown
debian (sid)
PostgreSQL 7.3devel on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.1
(Debian)

all regression tests passed.

thanks a lot for your work,
andrea gelmini
