Bug reference: 8216
Logged by: Sunitha Mudumba
Email address: sunitha(dot)mudumba(at)blss(dot)com(dot)au
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.4
Operating system: Windows
Description:

To_date does not throw an error when an invalid date is provided to it
select to_date('10-30-2012','dd-MM-YYYY');

It is not forcing the format on the date, instead it stores 2014-06-14.
