Not sure if I understand the problem correctly, but the contrib/spi/timetravel
module does something which I think may be what you are talking about.
http://developer.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/pgsql/contrib/spi/README.timetravel
The docs are a bit cryptic but you should be able to grasp if it suits
your needs. Basically you can go back to any point in tabe for a
timetravel table and make date based comparisons.
Hope this helps, forgive my ignorance if if doesn't.
