Bug #947: time(timenow()) Parse Error

Aaron Silver (silvera(at)ngt-dev(dot)com) reports a bug with a severity of 3
The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
time(timenow()) Parse Error

Long Description
In using Postgres 7.2.2 on a client's system I received a parse error using time(timenow()). Either in a function or via a command-line "select time(timenow());" statement, I received a "parse error near timenow". A "select date(timenow());" worked fine. Doing "select time('2003-04-15 00:00:00');" worked fine also.

This was not an issue on a machine running Postgres 7.1.3.

Is/was this a known issue? Is there a patch, or in what release was this fixed?
