Never use equality with floating point number as they are stored inexact.
Use for example:
select * from mxl_scheduler_queue where status_modified>='2008-07-03
16:55:06' and status_modified<'2008-07-03 16:55:07';
You can also compile Postgres with integer timestamps which does not
have this problem. You'll need to backup/initdb/restore though.
