Last psycopg2 versions depend on libpq features found in >= 8.3. It should be ok to compile against a modern libpq and then connect to an ancient backend but I never tried that. If it does not work just use an old version of psycopg1 togheter with psycopg2: they use different namespaces so you should be able to load and use them both at the same time. federico
