You will have to be more specific on what is not working for you. afaict
that line should still work:

lockhart=# select * from t1 where d < now() + '24 hours ago';
i | d

(though my personal preference is for something like (timestamp 'now' -
interval '24 hours') ).

One thing that changed for 7.0 is that "timestamp" is the primary
date/time type. Make sure that you do everything using that type, rather
than using "datetime"; the latter is sort-of supported by the parser to
help with upgrades, but that support is not complete.
