Test realized with python-psycopg2 (2.0.6-3) under Ubuntu 8.04.1, on a fresh database and a new project:

{{{
class Test(models.Model):

    val = models.DecimalField(max_digits=30, decimal_places=18, default=0)
}}}

{{{
>>> import decimal
>>> Test(val=decimal.Decimal('12.9')).save()
>>> Test.objects.all()[0].val
Decimal(""12.900000000000000355"")
}}}
