Yes, confirmed the broken case on 32-bit builds with the incorrect
result returned by timestamptz_trunc_internal():
SELECT date_trunc( 'week', timestamp with time zone 'infinity' );

And confirmed that we don't have any coverage for two code paths as of
HEAD:
- "not supported" in timestamp_trunc() for the entire new section of
where TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE() is satisfied.
- "not supported" in timestamptz_trunc_internal() for the entire
section where TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE() is satisfied.

0001 adds three new tests for timestamp:
- TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE + a valid unit, new path.
- TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE + "not supported" unit, new error path
- !TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE + "not supported" unit, old error path

0001 four new tests for timestamptz:
1) Three tests for timestamptz_trunc():
- TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE + a valid unit, new path.
- TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE + "not supported" unit, new path.
- !TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE +
2) One test for timestamptz_trunc_zone():
- !TIMESTAMP_NOT_FINITE + "not supported" unit

With what I am reading in your patch, what you are suggesting to add,
and a double-check at the interval tests, that seems complete to me.

This is a v18 open item, for something that I am an owner of as the
committer of d85ce012f99f, so I'll go take care of it.  Thanks!
