That's a good point. Also, '2012-04-04 15:06:00.1234567' fails with a
ValueError when executing the SELECT statement, because the
microsecond part is not in range 0-999999.

Truncating the fractional part to 6 characters sounds good to me,
because that way we get the best possible precision without failing
abruptly.
