Buggy timestamp generation code in PG 7.4.5 on FreeBSD 4.10 - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

Hi all,

Running PG 7.4.5 on FreeBSD 4.10, we've found what looks to be buggy
output from the timestamp code used to generate logfile entries.

After turning on the postgresql.conf settings to capture queries and
their execution times, this is the output from a "grep -n duration" on
the output.

Looking at the "hours" column it all looks fine until we get to 10 am.
 From there onwards (into 11am too) occasionally the hours column is
wrong.  10 is occasionally given as 00, and 11 is occasionally given as 1.
