Thank you very much Tom. Your remark did clarify the question.

What PG version is this?
If it's 7.2, then I think you're getting burnt by the fact that
::timestamp means coercion to timestamp *with* time zone. When that
value is then coerced to timestamp without time zone, you can get funny
behavior right around the times of daylight-savings transitions.
In particular, I don't think '1998-04-05 02:00:00' is actually a valid
time, at least under US DST rules --- it comes out as '03:00:00' for me.
Either leave off the explicit coercion, or coerce to "timestamp without
time zone", or update to 7.3 in which "timestamp" means "timestamp without
time zone".
