PostgreSQL checks for correct dates only for dates less than 1902 and
greater than 2037.
hygea=> select date '1900-04-31';
ERROR: date_in: day must be limited to values 1 through 30 in
'1900-04-31'
hygea=> select date '1901-04-31';
ERROR: date_in: day must be limited to values 1 through 30 in
'1901-04-31'
hygea=> select date '1902-04-31';
?column?
----------
1902-05-01
(1 row)
hygea=> select date '2037-04-31';
?column?
----------
2037-05-01
(1 row)
hygea=> select date '2038-04-31';
ERROR: date_in: day must be limited to values 1 through 30 in

hygea=> select date '2039-04-31';

I took a look at
src/backend/utils/adt/
dt.c
datetime.c
nabstime.c
and I saw things like...
if (tm->tm_year < 1901 || tm->tm_year > 2038
and
#define UTIME_MINYEAR (1901)
#define UTIME_MINMONTH (12)
#define UTIME_MINDAY (14)
#define UTIME_MAXYEAR (2038)
#define UTIME_MAXMONTH (01)
#define UTIME_MAXDAY (18)
Any body knows what does it mean ?
