The default postgresql.conf that is installed has
datestyle = iso,mdy
though commented out - on a new installation I uncomment this line as a
matter of course and change it to "iso,dmy" and it works fine.
Are you sure that PostgreSQL is presenting the dates in the wrong
format? Could there be another layer that's swapping the month and year
around? - try SELECTing some date values from psql and see what you get.
