I see in SGML:

      <entry><literal>substring('Thomas' from 2 for 3)</literal></entry>
      <entry><literal>hom</literal></entry>

Looks OK to me, and in the database:

    test=> select substring('Thomas' from 2 for 3);
     substring
    -----------
     hom
    (1 row)

My guess is that we fixed it after 7.1.
