Looks good as far as it goes.  Two thoughts:

* both functions should probably be marked STRICT STABLE
(not IMMUTABLE, because they depend on the local timezone setting).

* have you considered allowing the numeric values to be float8 instead
of integer?  There doesn't seem any reason to disallow sub-second
precision.
