I've got the same error message on
select version();
                            version
---------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on hppa-hp-hpux10.20, compiled by GCC 2.95.2

but
select t0_o.scheduler_action_id from scheduler_action t0_o where
template1-# t0_o.is_done = 0 and t0_o.invocation_date <=
1034033214921::numeric ;
did work;
I cannot see why this is necessary, and I cannot understand why nobody
else
replied to both of your requests.
