As far as I know constraint exclusion doesn't work with date_part or
extract().

The following caveats apply to constraint exclusion: 

      * Constraint exclusion only works when the query's WHERE clause
        contains constants. A parameterized query will not be optimized,
        since the planner cannot know which partitions the parameter
        value might select at run time. For the same reason, "stable"
        functions such as CURRENT_DATE must be avoided.

Or did I miss something?
