On 7.3.2 and 7.3.4 obtain the same result:

template1=# select '03/06/1973'::date;
date
------------
1973-03-06
(1 row)

template1=# select '02/06/1973'::date;
date
------------
1973-02-06
(1 row)

template1=# select '06/03/1973'::date;
date
------------
1973-06-03
(1 row)

template1=# select '06/02/1973'::date;
date
------------
1973-06-02
(1 row)

I suppose that the problem is related to the timezone. I make this test:

template1=# select to_timestamp('1973/06/03','yyyy/mm/dd');
to_timestamp
------------------------
1973-06-02 23:00:00+01
(1 row)

template1=# select to_timestamp('1973/06/02','yyyy/mm/dd');
to_timestamp
------------------------
1973-06-02 00:00:00+01
(1 row)

template1=# select to_timestamp('1973/06/04','yyyy/mm/dd');
to_timestamp
------------------------
1973-06-04 00:00:00+02
