Agreed - it's not very pretty.

Unfortunately not:
from cc_call cdr left join cc_card cc on cdr.card_id=cc.id left join
(select 'dnid' as dnid, 0.1 as sell_cost,0.1 as cost,0
as dnid_type union select 8887798764,0.02,0.06 ,1
) as tf on
tf.dnid::text=substr(cdr.dnid,1,length(tf.dnid::text))
still gives
