per definition the actual PostgreSQL driver shall be able to access also ancient versions of PostgreSQL; and you should also be able to profit from at least some of the bugfixes within the PostgreSQL connection libraries of the last oneandahalf decade. So: I recommend to you to go with the younges psycopg2 PostgreSQL driver. I also offer persuasion services to help people motivate themselfs, i.e. to upgrade PostgreSQL.
