Actually i have the sources but it's difficult to fix
them.
Long explanation: I work in smalltalk language, the
framework for mapping is third party component.
The smalltalk that I use it's not open source (but
there are some open source smalltalks), but the
smalltalk philosophy is to work into one ambient where
the objects live, all code is there.
Fix it implies an other layer of complexity , and I
don't want to take it.
I think is good idea to make 'automatically cast'
optional (add a new key into postgresql.conf)
