It's not exactly a Y2K bug, because it started to fail at Dec 30 1999
23:00:00, your local time.  Nonetheless, the abstime regression test
is now showing a "failure".  It's not a code bug --- it's that the test
includes a query whose results depend on whether current time is before
or after 12-30-1999.  Boo hiss.

Probably the best answer is to leave the test script alone and change
the expected output.  Thomas, do you have a different opinion?
        regards, tom lane
