Many thanks to both of you Tom and Eric for your prompt response.
I installed 13.1 and now the problem is solved. The consequence of this exchange is that I can now test MobilityDB on the brand new version of PostgreSQL :-)

That works fine for me. However, I can reproduce the syntax error if I misspell "as":
# select current_date as today , extract(week from current_date) ss weeknbyear; ERROR: syntax error at or near "weeknbyear" LINE 2: current_date) ss weeknbyear; ^
This leads me to suspect that you have some weird invisible character (non-break space, zero-width space, etc) adjacent to "as". Postgres is not terribly forgiving of non-ASCII whitespace.
