Is there any easy way to maintain compatibility?



You could try creating a user function named "to_date" with (timestamptz, text) as the signature and then inside the function cast the first argument to text explicitly before invoking the built-in to_date(text, text) function and returning its result.

You may have to deal with namespace/search_path issues though...
