It accepts values without quotes, but on output it quotes them similar
to a record type.

Try:
 create table foo(d date); select '(0001-10-29 BC)'::foo;

The spaces are the only reason it's being quoted there. I think it's
best to be fairly consistent, and it was suggested that I model the
input parsing after the record parsing.
