Don't take chances:

CREATE TABLE test (
       created TIMESTAMP WITHOUT TIME ZONE DEFAULT 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP' NOT NULL
);

iirc, you have to put quotes around CURRENT_TIMESTAMP otherwise the
default value is set to the CURRENT_TIMESTAMP at this very instant
instead of being evaluated at runtime when a record is inserted.  -sc
