Re[2]: Strange query results with dates

I'm running 7.02 on RedHat 6.0
and these queryes work with error result,
but I found the solution -
select abstime '2000-05-02'
and
select date_trunc('month',abstime '2000-05-02')
both work properly.

May be I have to install the next release of PG?
Tell me please what is the last available?
(I think 7.02 - is it right?)

Thanks for help!

Regards.
