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.

Do I have to do anything more to get it listed as a bug or can I consider
the proper people as having been notified?

Seems it is fixed in CVS now:

	test=> select '040506'::time;
	   time
	----------
	 04:05:06
	(1 row)

I think Tom fixed it. He responded to my original message. I wasn't sure
if he was going to do the fix, but I found that it had been fixed at least
a week ago.
