What is bad on the PostgreSQL documentation and mailing list archives?!
The month name string is 9-chars or you must use FM (fill-mode)option:
test=# select to_char(now(), 'Month DD');
to_char
--------------
June 18
(1 row)
test=# select to_char(now(), 'FMMonth DD');
to_char
---------
June 18
(1 row)
test=# select to_date('12-January-2001','DD-FMMonth-YYYY');
to_date
------------
2001-01-12
(1 row)
