Even more surprising is the behavior for interval(1) here:
ccdev=# select '1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.64321'::interval; interval
-------------------------------------1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.64321
(1 row)
ccdev=# select '1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.64321'::interval(1); interval
----------------------------------1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.60
(1 row)
ccdev=# select '1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.64321'::interval(2); interval
----------------------------------1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.64
(1 row)
ccdev=# select '1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.64321'::interval(3); interval
-----------------------------------1 year 2 mons 3 days 04:05:06.643
(1 row)
etc.
That trailing zero should be considered a bug.
