Eu uso o PostgreSQL 8.4.11 e encontro um erro estranho. Quando eu consultar:

SELECT "documents_document"."given_on" 
FROM "documents_document" 
WHERE (EXTRACT('month' FROM "documents_document"."given_on") = 1
       AND "documents_document"."given_on" 
       BETWEEN '1-01-01 00:00:00' and '1-12-31 23:59:59.999999') 
ORDER BY "documents_document"."created_on" DESC

Eu obtenho resultados:

  given_on

 2002-01-16

 2012-01-31
 2012-01-16
 2012-01-31
 2012-01-12
 ...

Por quê?

Eu esperaria datas no intervalo 1-01-01 ... 1-12-31.
