No, I was hoping an expert would take this on.  Lemme test it on Linux:

create table test_date AS (haveadate DATE );

insert into test_date ( haveadate )values ( '2000-04-30' );

select haveadate, date_part('month',haveadate),
date_part('day',haveadate),date_part('year',haveadate) from test_date

haveadate    
2000-04-30    4    30    2000

No problem here.  Or on PG-ACCESS.  

The problem must be in the OS/2 compile, probably some problem in
accessing the internal clock?
