Folks,

I'll let this session speak for itself:

jwnet=3D> select version();
                            version
---------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.95.3
(1 row)

jwnet=3D> select (255 * 255 * 255 * 255);
 ?column?
-----------
 -66716671
(1 row)

So, a bug, or what?
