It looks like if the SQL parser needs 'datetime_timestamp' , it looks
for 'datetime_stamp' which doesn't exist!
christof=> select datetime_timestamp(datetime 'now');
datetime_timestamp

Also all the different output formats for date/time are more than
confusing.
I read that TIMESTAMP (SQL92) shall replace DATETIME (PostgreSQL) in the
future, has anybody signed this work, yet? Thomas Lockhart?
