It's really not possible to believe that both of those were loaded from
the defaults you show. now() doesn't ever break down the system clock
value into day/month/year --- it just takes the system clock time in
seconds-since-epoch and adds a constant to get the right zero offset.
So there's no credible mechanism for now() to make such a mistake.
I think that your client software supplied a value for one field and
didn't supply a value for the other, and the supplied value was provided
in the wrong DateStyle.
