I get "1 mon" when I try this:
Welcome to psql 7.4.6, 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

area=> select age('2004-03-01'::date, '2004-02-01'::date);
age
-------
1 mon
(1 row)

I am actually using a version post 7.4.6 from cvs. I have also built
postgres using integer date time values.
