Mph.  This worked in 7.1, but doesn't in 7.2 or later.  Also, we will
accept it if it's followed by either fractional seconds or a timezone.

regression=#  select '040506-04'::time;
   time
----------
 04:05:06
(1 row)

regression=#  select '040506.12'::time;
    time
-------------
 04:05:06.12
(1 row)


I'm inclined to say this is a code bug not a doc bug.

			regards, tom lane
