Strftime doesn't understand fractions of seconds, which makes it unsuitable for postgres, also certian modern platforms have only a primitive strftime, which is likely to cause headaches for developers. Perhaps you could create a new type based on timestamp and write an input function that fixes the DB2 output, you'd then be stuck with your new type instead of the esisting one but it shouldn't be hard to make it compatible.
