I have developed the attached patch which fixes this bug:

        test=> select to_char('0002-01-01 00:00:00 BC' :: timestamp, 'CC');
         to_char
        ---------
         -1
        (1 row)
        
        test=> select to_char('0101-01-01 00:00:00 BC' :: timestamp, 'CC');
         to_char
        ---------
         -2
        (1 row)
        
        test=> select to_char('0301-01-01 00:00:00 BC' :: timestamp, 'CC');
         to_char
        ---------
         -4
        (1 row)

I also tested boundry values, e.g. 6th Century BC is 600-501:

        test=> select to_char('0600-01-01 00:00:00 BC' :: timestamp, 'CC');
         to_char
        ---------
         -6
        (1 row)
        
        test=> select to_char('0599-01-01 00:00:00 BC' :: timestamp, 'CC');
         to_char
        ---------
         -6
        (1 row)
        
        test=> select to_char('0501-01-01 00:00:00 BC' :: timestamp, 'CC');
         to_char
        ---------
         -6
        (1 row)
        
        test=> select to_char('0500-01-01 00:00:00 BC' :: timestamp, 'CC');
         to_char
        ---------
         -5
        (1 row)
        
I am thinking it is too late to apply this for 9.2 because users might
have already tested their applications, though I doubt many are using BC
dates.  Feedback?
