Hi
 
I've a Linux box running postgresql 8.2.17 and facing some strange results from the to_date function.
 
As you can see in the following tests the problem occurs when the template used includes upper and lower case characters for the minute (Mi or mI).
 
Am I using the incorrect syntax or is it a bug?
 
Thank you in advance!
 
template1=# select to_date('01/04/2013 23:59:59','DD/MM/YYYY HH24:Mi:SS')       ;
  to_date
------------
 2009-04-01
(1 row)
template1=# select to_date('01/04/2013 23:59:59','DD/MM/YYYY HH24:mi:SS')
;
  to_date
------------
 2013-04-01

template1=# select to_date('01/04/2013 23:59:59','DD/MM/YYYY HH24:mI:SS')
;
