Mapserver PostGIS Custom SRID Problem

This is my layer.
LAYER
         NAME "Montana"
		PROJECTION
			"init=epsg:1038007"
		END
         CONNECTION "user=postgres dbname=1038007 host=127.0.0.1  
port=5432"
	    CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
	    DATA "the_geom from mt_counties using unique gid using  
SRID=1038007"
         TYPE POLYGON
         STATUS ON
         CLASS
           NAME "MT counties"
           STYLE
             COLOR 245 245 245
             OUTLINECOLOR 200 200 200
           END
         END
       END

I am using the user postgres for the sql statement .

This is the actual command that I used from the command line.

psql -d 1038007 -U postgres -c "SELECT  
asbinary(force_collection(force_2d(the_geom)),'NDR'),gid::text from  
mt_counties WHERE the_geom && setSRID('BOX3D(1792876.6493994  
343910,2160707.3506006 612229)'::BOX3D, 1038007 )"


These are all performed on the same server that PostgreSQL is running.


I do have the database named 1038007.  Is there a problem with  
database names being all numerals within PostgreSQL?  Everything seems  
to work fine except when mapserver is making the call.
