Well, it's sure not a small change, and we're still undecided whether
that's what we want in the long run.

Also, we'd have to deal with some of the other TODO items I mentioned
before we could make it work at all.  There's at least one regression
test that computes an interval larger than 2^31 hours (how do you think
I found out about that problem ;-))

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
       choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
       match
