I can't duplicate the problem either.  I tried:

play=> create table out2cp(cp varchar(6));
CREATE
play=> insert into out2cp values('3182.1');
INSERT 405833 1
play=> insert into out2cp values('3182.2');
INSERT 405834 1
play=> select substring(cp from 1 for 4)::int4 from out2cp;?column?
----------    3182    3182
(2 rows)

Does anyone else see a failure with this?  If so what platform are you
on, and what build of Postgres are you using?
