The example works as expected for me:
regression=# CREATE TABLE url_hits (
id integer NOT NULL,
content_type_id integer,
file_extension_id integer,
"time" integer,
bytes integer NOT NULL,
path_id integer);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# create table url_hits_2011_12 (
check (
"time" >= extract ('epoch' from timestamp '2011-12-01
00:00:00')::int4
and "time" <= extract ('epoch' from timestamp '2011-12-31
23:59:59')::int4
)
) INHERITS (url_hits);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# create table url_hits_2009_08 (
check (
"time" >= extract ('epoch' from timestamp '2009-08-01
00:00:00')::int4
and "time" <= extract ('epoch' from timestamp '2009-08-31
23:59:59')::int4
)
) INHERITS (url_hits);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# explain select * from url_hits where "time" <
date_part('epoch'::text, '2009-08-12'::timestamp without time zone)::integer;

You sure you remembered those fiddly little casts everywhere?
(Frankly, declaring "time" as integer and not timestamp here strikes
me as utter lunacy.) What PG version are you using?
