Write you own function. You can get the last date for a month like this:
select '2007-04-01'::date+'1month'::interval-'1day'::interval;

You can get the weekday with:
select extract('dow' from '2007-04-01'::date+'1month'::interval-'1day'::interval);

Now you know the weekday. If this value = 4, its okay. If not, subtract
days until the date is a Thursday.
