Hi all,

I just noticed that the USECS_* constants are not defined when the server
is compiled without integer dates and timestamps.

Explicitly, timestamp.h is

#ifdef HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP
#define USECS_PER_DAY INT64CONST(86400000000)
#define USECS_PER_HOUR INT64CONST(3600000000)
#define USECS_PER_MINUTE INT64CONST(60000000)
#define USECS_PER_SEC INT64CONST(1000000)
#endif

Is there a particular reason for this? Even with float8 timestamps
there are uses for these constants in extensions.
