Select from array slices doesn't work

The lower the number the more severe it is.
Short Description
Select from array slices doesn't work
Long Description
When I try to select from array slices it gives strange qrPgSql error. Normal array indexing works, but slices don't.
Sample Code
create table temp (arr varchar(20)[])
OK
select arr[1:2] from temp
Error: qrPgSql: Parameter '2' not found
select arr[1] from temp
OK

What client frontend are you using? It looks like the frontend is
trying to interpret :2 as a parameter. I seem to recall that
psql had such a bug for a while during 7.0 development, but I
don't think it was in any release version.
BTW, I can't find any occurrence of such an error string in current
sources ...
