Well, the way to debug this sort of thing is to look at the error code
number. In psql you do it like this:

regression=# \set VERBOSITY verbose
regression=# select '2008-05-06 00:00:95'::timestamptz;
ERROR: 22008: date/time field value out of range: "2008-05-06 00:00:95"
LOCATION: DateTimeParseError, datetime.c:3112

and then a search in the appendix for 22008 finds

22008 DATETIME FIELD OVERFLOW
