I am still confused.  What does such output look like.   Right now I
get:
test= SELECT '13 minutes'::interval;
 interval
--
 00:13
(1 row)

I assume the idea is to display it as 00:13:00, right?
Correct, but with Postgres DateStyle or SQL, it does other stuff:

 Why does the interval type not print seconds when they are zero?
 
 This leads to inconsistent reading of the information.
 
 7.3.3:
 
 ler=# select '13 minutes'::interval;
  interval
 --
  00:13
 (1 row)
 
 ler=# select '13 minutes 1 second'::interval;
  interval
 --
  00:13:01
 (1 row)
 
 ler=#
 
 I noticed this when I loaded the data from my long distance company into
 a PG database.

 Seems like a bug to me too.  Anyone think it's not?
 
 Note this only occurs with DateStyle = ISO, the other datestyles
 use a different format for intervals.

Clearly seems like a bug to me.
