I think you are right; this if-block should be exactly like the DTK_TIME
case except for handling the prepended sign. That also raises the
question why it is changing the tmask value returned by DecodeTime.
It seems to be doing exactly the wrong thing there. Test case:
regression=# select (interval '56:48 56:48' );
ERROR: invalid input syntax for type interval: "56:48 56:48"
LINE 1: select (interval '56:48 56:48' ); ^
regression=# select (interval '56:48 +56:48' );interval
----------56:48:00
(1 row)
The second one fails to fail because an inappropriate tmask value got
included into fmask.
Will fix.
